Inspired by: Grandfather Tales / collected and edited by Richard Chase
A wonderful collection of folk tales ..

"TO ALL TELLERS AND LISTENERS
old and young, who discover what Tom Hunt meant when he said -

'No, it'll not do just to read
the old tale out of a book.
You've got to tell 'em
to make 'em go right.'"

from the foreword of Grandfather Tales

even touching tree bark ..
without sun ..
there are no shadows ..

yet, look carefully in the blue water ..
you can see that which is above ..
reflections of white puffy things..
just floating above as well as below ..

an Apple Snail ..

Taken from: Great Florida Birding Trail website

"Florida is the only state in the U.S. where Limpkins breed. They are thought to be closely related to cranes and can be found year-round throughout Florida except for the western panhandle. When they aren’t searching for apple snails and freshwater clams, Limpkins can often be found sitting on snags or skulking in reed beds close to the water’s edge. They are locally known as the "wailing bird" or "crying bird" due to their loud mournful call, usually issued at night by territorial males. The Limpkin is listed in Florida as a species of special concern due to habitat loss. "

* starting at bottom left corner, go clockwise, to follow this Limpkin at he disappears, reappears - then, is gone !
