Sunsets never cease to captivate and surprise me on almost a daily occurrence. Why do I say almost a daily occurrence? This is because somedays I am just “too busy” and basically forget that the fleeting colours of the day are coming to an end once again. Somedays you look up and its already dark, which is a missed opportunity and other times you just look up and your heart can at times skip a beat in the pure ecstasy of colours you never knew the sky could display.
I just finished driving an orca tour out of Victoria, BC in Canada when the sky simply blasted the inner harbour of Victoria with some incredibly intense colours that I find myself today shaking my head in a kind of disbelief. As I rounded the last maker before getting to my dock to secure the vessel and call it a day, I looked up and saw a huge Blue Heron sitting on top of that very marker almost watching the sunset itself - chances are it was simply looking for food but you can believe what you want.
Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.

Whenever I hear about blue herons I think of this poignant poem by Australian poet John Kinsella, if you are interested...

The sunsets are the most beautiful scene of the day, their colors are so incredible and captivating that they fall in love and more if it is a beach sunset.
