Kraak The Heron is back by the pond – catching frogs
I did a poem for him
Kraak the Heron
Angular legs
Sleek lines on feathers
Focussed stillness
Yellow eye
Fatal stab.
Flesh of frogs & fish
Lift-off
Sky-reach
Pterodactyl
BB Nov. ‘24
Aubers the Pheasant patrolled the other end of the pond – I think they were aware of each other, but keeping their distance
Aubers then hung about under the bird feeder to catch the bits from the Sparrows and Starlings feeding – they’re messy eaters!
