		<description>Being so close to a heron was a first for me. It was a special moment.

The comments made me momentarily doubt myself. A walk and a grey heron soon sorted that out :-)</description>

		<description>Yes our Lord was showing his presence and looking after me. I was amazed at how close the heron let me get to him. It is a special moment that I will cherish :-)</description>

		<description>Lots of people in my local area (not my neighbours) are not respecting social distancing. The non social distancing people are unlikely to go for a walk in the rain. So yes walking when the sun has not come out to play is the safest option at the moment.</description>

		<description>Wonderful shots, CP. I can never get that close - they take off, with amazing grace and bank through the air like some great vintage bomber; beautiful to watch. As for the other, my dad always used to tell me, &quot;Nil illeitimus carborandum.&quot; :-)</description>

		<description>Good to see your old friend, the Heron, again. It certainly is much safer waking in the rain these days</description>

		<description>I first heard that after reading a book called &quot;The Round House&quot; by Louise Erdrich. In  Ojibwe (Native American tribe) legend, the heron is always a symbol of good fortune, but especially if it&#039;s your totem/spiritual (and the heron did bring the protagonist good luck/fortune).  

For whatever it&#039;s worth, the site I quoted was (try not laugh) was this one - https://whatismyspiritanimal.com/spirit-totem-power-animal-meanings/birds/heron-symbolism-meaning/.

Okay, it&#039;s cheesy, but it does mention that Egyptians (as we know from hieroglyphs), Greeks, Christians, Norse, and Native Americans all associate the heron with bringing good luck and/or being associated with the divine, putting them in their artwork :)  

I haven&#039;t had a chance to research that from more reputable sources yet, but being that I&#039;ve seen heron symbolism in some of this ancient artwork, I&#039;d agree it&#039;s at least considered a spiritual animal in many cultures, though I&#039;m not sure the meaning is as the above site says - however, generally positive spiritual connotation, it would seem :)

Just read your suggestion for a video watch in the below thread, I&#039;ll take a look here in a bit, currently watching The Last Kingdom with Mark while I type this (so forgive any multitasking typos lol.)  

True, without having watched it, from what I&#039;ve read recently, a vaccine won&#039;t be here as quickly as we hoped, but definitely before a cure, as we are unable to cure most viruses (with the exception of hepatitis C) anyway, just reduce the viral load.  Not sure the first version would be the best anyway, first is not always best ;) 

I&#039;m also following these plasma immunotherapies they have done locally, by our local university and then a local private hospital.  A doctor in the same practice as my PCP claims plasma donation therapy from a former COVID-19 patient saved his life, after he contracted it himself.   Dr. Foxx was on a ventilator from COVID-19 for almost a month, but has now recovered.   The local university and hospitals have since applied for further clinical trials and/or  FDA to approval. 

Regardless, we&#039;ll keep our heron hope on - and I promise I&#039;ll stop barraging your comments section after this lol.  

Glad to see your grey mood is lifting - an online pile-on situation is designed to make you doubt yourself.  I remember the first time it happened to me, it messes with you for a while - I think because of the sheer number of people who hop on make you wonder if all these people can see something about yourself that you can&#039;t/didn&#039;t know.  But actually, it&#039;s exactly as you said - they don&#039;t know you - and people are sheep, they follow the loudest mouths.

After examining what was said for truth, once you&#039;re sure what&#039;s self-truth,  throw the rest in the trash, evict it from renting any more space in your mind - the reasons they said these things actually have nothing to do with you, and more likely had to do with truth you said that they don&#039;t want to admit ;)

 Don&#039;t continue the unkindness on yourself that others inflicted - you know you&#039;d never be that unkind to someone else as they were to you, so why be that unkind to you? 

Love you - going back to quiet mode now  xo  :)</description>

		<description>I know what you mean about busy pavements. It rained so I was sure I would be relatively safe.

The paths were virtually empty (as they used to be) and the people who were walking along them were quite diligent with social distancing.</description>
