Linear Serenity

I examined the image of an eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) and was struck by a certain quality I couldn't quite define. It seems connected to the way the arcing power cable gradually comes into focus, leading to the delicate reveal of the bluebird perched upon it. I should mention that when we're out walking, I always find myself scanning the lines for bluebirds.

I have basking stones in my raised bed wildflower meadow. It isn't that often that I see them used for basking but I am probably not around at the right moment.

Apart from that, it denies some space to plants and the soil it is sitting on is probably cooler and damper than the surrounding soil.

In insect terms, it is practically a mountain.
