ART or bird shit ?
That is the question.
.
.
One quiet afternoon, I was swinging in my hammock on the Johnson Key chickee in Florida Bay and enjoying the light breezes and wide panoramic views.
.
.
The square angles of the wooden structure nicely framed the water and sky, and also Man-o-war Key due south on the horizon.
.
.
My attention soon shifted to the inside railings of the structure.
.
.
There were these interesting text or script-like vertical designs created by gravity and the dripping bird shit over the wood grain.
.
.
The guano trails almost look like graffiti. Reading left to right, or right to left?
Are the birds sending us a coded message?
.
.
A sharp eyed reader has pointed out a close resemblance to Cirth script. That fictional script is based on the real Runic alphabets or Runes of pre-Christendom northern Europe.
Indeed, we may have cracked the code!
.
.
The birds do a lot of “business” out here on the chickee.
Maybe this is their thank you note?
.
.
Who knows!
That afternoon will not be soon forgotten however, and that is certain.
My camping clothes now have that certain permanent “hint of bird shit” to them!
.
.
It’s not unusual to see lots of bird poop on the platform, actually it is the norm.
If you go for a visit, BYOT – Bring Your Own Tarps! 😉
.
.
Enjoy!
