There's a nice park across the street from where I'm living, and I walk there almost every evening. Tonight on my way back home I saw this scene (the image above) and I thought, “That has a cool look to it.” I stopped and pulled out my phone and as I took a photo, a set of huge white wings flapped right over me.
A big owl flew from right to left, inches above my head. It landed in a tree in the dark off the edge of the road. I moved closer and got a very faint view of a barred owl. I thought this was a nice sighting, and didn’t think much of it. Then I walked to the middle of the street and took a few more pics, and as I did it flew over me again, this time from left to right. It landed in a tree on the other side of the road, and I approached in the hopes of seeing something. It was too dark, but I sensed it was right there. I walked back, and when I got to the spot where I'd taken the pictures, it flew over me again! It landed on the same branch where I’d seen it in the darkness.

Maybe it's pertinent to ask YOU this time...What's going on in your life? Are you in a place of transition? ;)
Just happened on my trail run, same kind of owl and 4 swoops. The 5th one was directly from behind following the trail all majestic at eye level, although I turned around right away cause I was keeping an eye on it. It swooped away at the last second as I had my phone out as a shield in front of me. It eventually left me alone after some distance
A fork in the road…
