Roseate Spoonbill
February 10, 2014: I came upon this bird ballet / Four days before a special day, / A lovely bird all dressed in pink / By water’s edge about to drink. / She smiled at me and gave this sign, / “This my friend is your Valentine.”

Great Blue Heron
Frustration: I came upon this bird irate; / This catch will not its hunger sate. / The anole that it thought a snack / Shed tail and ran at bird's attack. [A lizard escapes / Leaving its tail in bird's bill / I see frustration]

Broad-winged Hawk
Reflections on Steppenwolf & Hermine: I found this bird at bayside lake / Feasting on a Green Water Snake; / It looked at me and seemed to say, / "Don't judge me I'm a bird of prey." / Then Steppenwolf came to my head, / And I recalled what Hermine said. / To call them beasts is most absurd; / I'll photograph this noble bird.

Common Gallinule
Reflection on Reflections: We see reflections with our eyes, / But what we see can be a guise. / I asked this bird, “What do you see?” / It said, “A bird that looks like me.” / And that was all this bird would say; / Its little mind was far away. / Sometimes refections of this kind / Lead to reflections in the mind. / And then a thought occurred to me, / “Oh pretty bird what do you see?”
-
Snowy Egret
Joy of What's Next: This bird is looking at a fish; / A tasty meal is this bird’s wish. / A wish is not quite what it seems; / Our future lives are built on dreams. / Wishes are things we can’t control, / But dreams live deep within our soul. / This bird did not achieve its wish; / It did not get to eat the fish. / What future will you come to see? / You’ll find your dreams and set them free.

Double-crested Cormorant
A Silly Moment: I came upon this bird at ease; / It stops to rest where it doth please. / Its look says, "Hey, I'm so lucky; / I found this neat rubber ducky." [ Absurd blue-eyed bird / An easy photo moment / You actually posed]
-
Little Blue Heron
A Child Posing: This bird is less than one year old; / Its feeding style is slow, not bold. / It gets some help from its white plume; / Snowy Egrets allow it room. / With Snowy it can feed each day; / And predators will stay away. / As its first birthday does draw near, / A plumage change will then appear. / In this stage, it’s called Calico; / And adult plumage will then show.
