FWR:
Shades of grey, low contrast, and a slightly out of focus image actually brings out the shapes in this one. A misty shoreline feel, with the bird patiently waiting 'like seamen sitting bolt upright,upon a half-tide reef'.... Sasha's made me go all poetic!
DG:
Nice, foggy mood.

This reminds me of insectivorous birds, when coming upon a nest -core! more ants!

Would a fish-loving bird eat ants?

Some ants contain formic acid, which causes predators to appear drunk after eating them. Who knew that these birds could be a so naughty without alcohol even being involved.

It's like elephants eating overripe Marula fruit

We have both birds and ants here where I live. Elephants and marula fruit are kind of far away.
