marsh

The local coffee shop overlooks a salt marsh. There is always something to watch through the wide windows.

    We must have had the same 'overall mood' when we wrote our haiku! I love yours too and yes, the word 'gingerly'describes it well!

    I have had a coffee or two with an egret......watching them is a lesson in their patience as they hunt..

    I can't think of a better way to start one's day - keeping company with egrets.
