I missed both these birds as they were covered by the foliage. It was their movement which helped me to spot them.
It is the habit of the birds to stay hidden for a while each day. That is how they protect themselves from predators and feel rested from hyper vigilance of the environment.
It is a desirable habit for humans as well. Stay hidden periodically; silence of words; hide from visibility; and stay away from usual communications; attend to inward movements to make sense and find direction ahead; allow others to search for you rather than be on a regular 'giving' mood; attend to use time for personal edification..... and discover another inward depth where meaning and fulfilment exist in the richness of aloneness!
Such times are formative and reflective seasons.
