We spent 3 weeks in Ireland two summers ago, and everywhere we went my boys insisted on picking up the bits of sheep fur we’d find. Their idea was to make a sweater from it. We still have a big glass far full of wool – but have yet to turn it into a sweater. On our nature walks we always keep an eye out for signs – be they deer droppings, bird prints on a river bank, woodpecker holes on a tree, whatever. It sharpens their eyes and lets them see the wonder in what isn’t, but was.
Beautifully put, and I love the image of the jar of wool…which is a sweater of the future 🙂
i love finding tiny clues.
Oh me too Janna…..
This is beautiful and has reminded me just how important it is to NOTICE the little things in nature. This takes a lot of practice, a keen eye and a curious mind. Thank you.
Thanks Caro, what a lovely comment. It’s the little things which often matter most, and I guess it’s easy to over look them. These wool streamers caught my eye in the wind….and got me wondering 🙂
I’m curious about the source of the wool … are these bits from nearby sheep that took flight in the wind? The lighter-colored material says ‘yes,’ while the bluish material says ‘no.’ D
You’re very observant …..looking around that day we saw frozen hoof prints from horses on the mud of the path, and the field was full of sheep. So I think the lighter, pinker hair is sheep wool. While the longer streaming bluish hair might be from a horses tail….
Mystery solved!
What a LOVELY post! Zen at its best.
Thank you Doe, that’s high praise coming from you and your wonderfully zen blog 🙂
