Scarlet Ibis


Crimson feathers frisk it’s little frame
Bright appendages doused in the most  vivacious hues of red and scarlet
Feathers alight upon a murky expanse
Stagnant water  it walks through
Discerning little bugs, shrimp, and crabs, it gobbles it up
Spearing down into the patty of mud with an ebony  beak
