kingfisher

A wonderful view of a kingfisher, which flew, a streak of electric blue downriver then stopped. I watched it on its perch as it showed me first its orange front then its blue and turquoise back then dived into the water twice before disappearing into the bushes overhanging the water.

does the kingfisher

The haiku is my response to the description of the kingfisher, which Juliet recently posted at her wonderful blog "crafty green poet." I left the haiku as a comment at the blog. For me, Juliet's description evoked the kind of moment in which nature seems aware of our presence and displays itself for our delight.
