According to Amelia Rhodes, "You may look back and realize they were big things."
Here's a list of little things I observed:
A butterfly on a sunflower
Scarlet leaves on a dogwood branch
Buttercups like stars scattered on the verdant grass
A hummingbird sipping nectar from the four-o-clock flowers
Dewdrops glittering like gems in the morning sun
Three wild turkeys gobbling from the woods
A tiny brown moth with white spots in its wings
One little purple flower popping up on my lawn
Fog rising like smoke signals from the mountains
Waves sparkling like diamonds on Lake Chatuge.
These are some of the little things I noticed when I really observed the wonders of nature.
I hope all my blogger friends are well and having a great summer as the autumn arrives.

Hi Brenda, thanks for leaving your lovely words on my blog. I, also, find new friends after visiting another blog, and that's how it happens so easily across the oceans. We have a frost here this morning, Thursday 11th. Love your flowers and words.
Once we start looking at nature, there are so many little things that can bring a smile.
I love this post. I will notice closely and make my own list. Thanks for the inspiration!
You are so right, Brenda! I try to take pictures outside most days, just to remind myself Louis Armstrong was right - What a Wonderful World!
Little things bring such jot and contented essential, don't they. All part of being mindful.
Sometimes we forget to notice the "little things" because we're looking for the big ones, Brenda. This was a good reminder. Also, thanks for the well wishes on our recent anniversary, much appreciated.
