TODAY'S PHOTO -
As I was looking for my little green heron friend
of yesterday, or another bird, on the spatterdock
roots, I saw a red image in the water under the root.
I took the picture thinking that it could be a pretend
moorhen with its red beak.
Once I looked at the photo on the screen, I saw, and
continue to see, an angel or a blowfish (not real),
under the root above the reflections, facing to the
right.
NOTE: I left this image on my screen for a couple
of hours and just came back to it. I love the vibrancy
of the photo and NOW I see Little Red Ridinghood,
with a green bonnet and a little, "Miss Piggy"
face.
In actuality the green "body" (or bonnet,
depending on how you are seeing it) is a small section
of the underside of the brown leaf. See Spatterdock
Root2 for a closer-up view.
Today, I invite you to find an unusual or unique image
in one of your environments.
READER COMMENTS ON
THE LAST ISSUE - Issue
78
Bob Tatem was our information source yesterday. He
wrote:
"Did you
know (according to “Birds of North America”
by Alsop that the green heron has been known to place
an insect that it caught on the surface of the water
as bait to catch a fish? Pretty smart if you
ask me! "
when I replied, asking him if he knows why the little
green heron is "called green" since I don't
see any, or much, green:
"Birds of Florida"
by Stan Tekiela (pg 275) says that the green heron
has a blue-green back, a rusty red neck and chest,
a dark green crest and short yellow legs. The yellow
legs turn bright orange during breeding season.."
Thanks,
Bob, for doing the research for me and for our subscribers.
