Beautiful story and exercise. Interesting how swans are turning up everywhere. A friends and I shared a delight in blue herons. They are shore birds, found mostly near lakes and oceans. My friend passed from a brain tumor some years ago and yet, I have seen a blue heron since moving to desert state.

What a beautiful way to continue to feel the presence of your friend in the world! Blue herons are also special to me. Last summer, they were everywhere, I probably saw close to 100 over the course of the summer, which is probably about 10x more than usual. I have found that I often cross paths with a certain animal more frequently when their wisdom is what I am needing to incorporate into my life.
