Up on a ledge, On the lookout

The King of coasts and cliffs

Soar

Scour

Hunt

On your journey,

Take risks outside the comfort zone

and seek opportunities with a passion

The Beacon is the guide to a place of security.

Nurture spirit,

bask in the sun,

Be the light on how to aim for the stars.

    1. Thank you LB, I was fortunate the day I visited the Marine center. The bird was perched on a ledge made for them 🙂 Ospreys are gregarious and never shy in the presence of humans.
