this photograpically
ordinary image ...

... is of some
temporal value
though ...

If one searched
the Web ...
it will be difficult
to find another ...
... showing these
two species of
Crakes ... in one

One ... frozen moment
in time ... of
the inherent richness
of the habitat and
contained diversity
that is lost
forever ...
symbolized by the
Baillon's ...
passing across the

a fleeting apparition
