Subject: [TN-Bird] The Slough Revisited
On this bright spring-like day
Driving south on North Watkins,
Observing the trees
With their new leaves and catkins,
On approaching the slough,
I gave it glance,
Not really hopeful.,
just on the off chance
That something unusual
Might be in store
It's not that far-fetched,
It's happened before.
In a tall cypress tree
O'er the tan, flooded water
A long tail, a curved neck!
Could that be a Darter??????
A quick turn around
For a much closer peek,
A white patch of wing!
And a bayonet beak!
Sure enough, there it is!
By gosh and by jinga!
At the Watkins Street Slough
There is an Anhinga!
