simplicity

You had any when you are watching your birds ?

The type of moment you are talking about is quite well documented in writings of religious experiences.
Seeing a sunset, sunrise and SO many while up mountains. Seem to recall that people many years ago would go to the top of a mountain as they thought the higher they went, the nearer to God they would be.

The type of experience you had is called " ineffable ", meaning you know you had it, it was very clear to you at the time but can't quite explain it if someone asks you to describe it.

William James handles the subject of ineffability well.
He claimed that human beings were the only spiecies that have developed a mode of concisous activity that enables reflection and self reflection.

That statement is a fine example of ineffable.
