Almost the final week of Squares Renew

Where has the time gone? I am sure it was only a few days ago that Squares began. I feel a little bit like this Egret only just appearing onto the scene.

This pair did make us smile. We stood watching them for quite a while. The egret was following the spoonbill, not necessarily to steal the spoonbill’s finds but to take advantage of all the disturbance that the spoonbill was making in the estuary bed. Much easier to find your dinner if someone else does the hard work!

Every step forward there was another step close behind, and if the egret did get ahead, it quickly changed direction if it thought the spoonbill might be onto something. Looking at this now they remind me of the friends who have got grief. They haven’t tried to change my path or compare experiences or attempt to cheer me up. They’ve simply been there by my side or close by ready to move whatever way I needed to move.
