a black bird (little cormorant) perched on a branch in middle of the lake.

a photo of tall trees without any leaves, you can see the bare branches. almost in the middle of the image, there is bird sitting on one of these branches. on bottom right you see a different tree with leaves and flowers.

the background is a blue sky, and there are white clouds visible.

a short poem inspired by this photograph --

cotton clouds far away,
bare branches near me,
silhouette of a perched bird.

silhouette of three ibis perched on a branch of a very tall tree, photographed early in the morning.

silhouette of an Heron sitting on a branch (without any leaves) the background is a shade of golden brown.

This photo had inspired me to write this poem.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐧

Against the fading, evening sky,
A heron's form, so stark and high.
A slender neck, a pointed beak,
Silently gazing at the creek.
