Strawberry moments usually happen because of effort. I don't think that strawberry fell from the sky landing in the bird's beak, do you?
"Did you ever observe
to whom the accidents happen?
Chance favors only
the prepared mind."

Louis Pasteur also said:
""When you work
seven days a week,
fourteen hours a day,
you get lucky."
"Far and away
the best prize that life has to offer
is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
Theodore Roosevelt

Finding strawberries is the bird's work. The strawberry moment is great, but not more important than all the work that leads to it. As I come closer to a half-century mark in a few years, I am understanding the satisfaction found in the work itself, and not just the strawberries that come as a result of the work. This brings me to a final quote to leave with you.
"Far and away
the best prize that life has to offer
is the chance to work hard at work worth doing."
Theodore Roosevelt
