Perigee Super-Moon



4:30 am.  A rural high-desert alarm clock…when you’re awakened by a herd of javelinas passing by the open window.  For those who’ve not had the pleasure, the uniquely ‘pungent’ odor of these wild collared peccaries could strip the paint off an old chair (*wink*). 

I went outside to see if these were our ‘regulars’, or a new bunch; however, it was the Perigee ‘Super-Moon’ setting in the west that kept me entranced. 

Reveling in the moment with a half-dozen bats who gracefully swooped and soared overhead, feasting on pre-dawn flying insects before bedding down for the day, I was reminded of how blessed we are to be in this peaceful place…sharing space with all of Nature.
