Looking and Finding

Paul was a bird watcher. He especially loved raptors and had sighted hundreds of hawks - all kinds - over the years. But he had never seen owls in the wild. Not surprising since they are silent, stealthy, and nocturnal!

Then one day, driving across the state, he spotted an owl and slowed to catch the details. It was amazing that he noticed an owl in broad daylight. Even more amazing, though, was that he sighted four more that same day!

"When you are clear about what you are looking for," he explained, "You begin finding it everywhere."
