Heron on a Stump
There is nothing more humbling than to see a bird whose brain is the size of a pea standing grace- fully and steadfastly on one foot, on a stump, in a lake, surrounded by a dozen floating lily pads, while the other rests snugly beneath a wing...piercing eyes and an enduring gaze focused on and waiting for that one underworld shadow attached to the fin-tailed creature which is about to become his early morning meal. If only I could fish like that.
