Sunday Sunset - The Glow & The Swifts

 This evening the sky had a rosy glow at the horizon as the sun set.






There was a half moon, and the Chimney Swifts were swirling around it scooping up flying insects.



 

“The sky blushed rose at close of day,

 A quiet flame that slipped away.”

 

“Chimney swifts stitch the sky with invisible thread—never landing, always weaving the wind into motion.”

I like the quote about invisible stitiches, almost as beautiful as this sunset. I tend to like the darker ones best, but they are all stunning works of art by God and Ginny
