Dragonfly; NC Botanical Garden, Chapel Hill, NC |
The delicate simplicity of a spider's web, the vibrant colors of a songbird, the fragility of the wings of a dragonfly - the birds and insects that we see every day have their own beauty that is usually overlooked. Something as ordinary as a turtle or as familiar to us as our own housecat can still be visually interesting if only we take the time to look.
Little Blue Heron; South Carolina Aquarium, Charleston, SC |
Even those animals less common in our daily lives can still seem mundane at first glance, but then we look closer at the wing of the flamingo or the gap in a heron's beak or the way the mud cakes in the folds of an elephant's skin and begin to see aspects of the familiar in the unfamiliar.
