SNOWY EGRETS FLIGHT

Posted on by Kimsmithdesigns

I often think of this quote from the Dalai Lama when watching birds and butterflies in flight – “give the ones you love wings to fly, roots to come back, and reasons to stay.”

The clip of the Snowy Egrets in flight was shot on a still and hazy summer afternoon, late in the day after the birds had been foraging in the marsh. As soon as the Egret flew above the tree line, the atmosphere became clearer and I imagined it was quiet and peaceful in the windless treetops. The Egret was joined by four more Snowies as they headed off to their night roost.

Bring the family down to Harbor Loop on September 29th from 10AM to 2PM for a Community Safety Day.

There will be many exhibits from the Gloucester Police and Fire Departments as well as others. A $5 fee will be collected from adults and children are free.

100% of proceeds will benefit the Cops for Kids with Cancer Foundation.

The day’s activities will include:

  • Police Vehicles and Equipment
  • Fire Trucks and Ambulances
  • State Police Horses on site and State Police Helicopter Fly By
  • Tours of US Coast Guard Base and Boats
  • First Responders
  • Police K9 dogs
  • Music and food
  • and more

What a great way to spend the day with family and friends while supporting our Police and Fire Departments as they work to raise money for an incredibly important charity.

It is going to be such a great day and they are looking forward to a wonderful crowd.
