Vero Lake: Living in the Country here in Florida

  The poor eagles, bunnies, turtles, birds, owls have no where to go here where I live. They are cutting down all their habitat faster and faster and the poor animals are being displaced. It is sad that we do that to our wildlife here just to build more houses for humans. Why can't we set aside some woods in all blocks for the animals? It is so sad to see so many animals like this big eagle on this new house. They are clearing the land nearby and took down all the woods where tis guy lived. I saw him come in and out of there each day. I wish that are so called leaders could do more in our neighborhood to protect the wildlife here and prevent so much growth and development. Praying for the poor animals that call VLE their home who are being displaced. 

  Blessed with cardinals all around here! I love their bird call and today I put a bird feeder by the St. Francis statue and the female cardinal came for some food. We see and hear them all day long. Yesterday when I went for a walk, one flew up very close to me, as if it wanted to perch on me. I just love birds! My mom did too. Sometimes I think when I see and hear them it is my mom speaking through them to me. What love from God!  I feel so bird blessed! God is so wonderful in our lives if we look for it and listen to Him! VLE, where I live,  is a great place to see a lot of birds and wildlife! So so blessed!
