The snake bird!

 

Like the snake,

The long neck of the bird

Moved in the light and dark

and it was captured 

Left an indelible mark

 

The play of light

Made it's way

Once on the neck

and once on the beak

once on the feathers.

 

It was the charming bird

Which took the centre,

everything around was bleak.

 

As the photographer waited to capture the darter,

the darter waited for its next catch.
