THE BLACK CORMORANT

I spotted standing amidst other waterbirds near a hole in the ice of a canal.
In the morning I went to Amsterdam, visiting our dear friend Cor. We walked in the centre along many canals, through little alleys, visiting the Krijtberg, the church, the Nieuwmarkt, till we had a baguette to eat and went to the Ferry over the IJ. From Amsterdam Noord we wanted to walk to a cityfarm where we had been sometime in the past, I wanted to take some photos, but we walked and walked and arrived at 'Twiske', a beautiful nature area, with frozen ponds and canals, a windmill and through Landsmeer. The grey sky of the day changed into a blue one and the sun just above the horizon said goodbye to us.
A Thai meal and the train back. Of course the picture chosen and I will peep in to blipfoto friends tomorro in the morning.

My haiku:

The sun must have mist
Us because she came at last
In haste she said bye bye

And the italian proverb:

Above black there is no colour; above salt no flavour.
