wetland water whirls an ibis searches for crabs ~ foraging ballet white feathers emerge standing tall on bright pink stilts ~ bill crab prize displayed grunts and cooing sounds echo the wet marsh at dusk ~ ibis courting chant

Lovely haiku, Tania. Ibis are common in Florida. When I visit my family I see them all the time. Not too much in my neck of the woods though...New Jersey has a lot but few ibises. Nice! I wrote a Ibises haiku not too long ago. I like yours :)
