Not Autumn Leaves

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Spring new leaves, Balnarring, Mornington Peninsula
~
Manic Monday prompt ~ Leaf
~

Until Autumn days
A leaf is just some green shape ~
Many leaves make shade
~
But some are rebels ~
Some Spring leaves are pinky red
And then change to green
~
And some unique leaves
Wax in pearl grey wonderlands
Throughout the seasons
~

Strange Web-Footed Bird

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ Critter (a shag?) on a post at Schnapper Point, Port Phillip Bay, Mornington Peninsula.
If anyone can tell me what this bird really is, I would love to know.
I only saw one of these critters.
