Sitting on the garden hook that is atop Gidget’s resting area right outside Joyful Pause Cottage. This darling little wren. I lean on the railing of the deck and get lost in complete bliss watching these very active birds.

Flitting here and there. Cocking their heads to the side in every which way. Curious about everything around them. They rarely seem to sit still.

It then occurred to me how often this was my Gidge girl. So many similar characteristics as the wren that she had. Well, hmmm, I pondered. Perhaps her spirit has returned in the form of a wren. Bringing me so much joy and filling my heart with so much love.

Is that you Gidge girl?

Oh yes, perhaps it is so. Turning your head in the other direction just as I raise the camera to focus and shoot once again. Something you loved to do when you sometimes grew weary of me wanting to photograph your darling face.
