I watched two of this little robin’s siblings leave the nest pretty readily, but this last one seemed to require a little extra encouragement. Maybe it was because after the other’s had fledged, Mom and Dad brought back about seven worms and there was no competition left for those worms.
The Celtic symbol for the Triple Goddess of Maiden, Mother and Crone. The eternal Maiden within, full of promise and hopes to come; the innocent child with the ability to see with clarity and purpose; and, the virgin self. Gaia, the Mother within, giving birth to seeds conceived by the maiden; nourishing growth to nurture ideas and projects. The love of the Mother is always within through pain, joy, tears and laughter deeply in your heart. The wise Crone within, full of the ageless wisdom of nature, barren, yet beautiful whilst holding the keys to the underworld and understanding the mysteries of death. I am change, sacrifice and transformation representing both death and birth in infinite wisdom. All three of these qualities are within every female to call upon when necessary. / Drawn with pen and ink, photographed and edited in photoshop7 with Redfield plug-in fractilius highlights.

The Sea is the primeval source of life…formless, limitless, inexhaustible and full of possibility, as is the SEAHORSE.
