Mobius Stilt

A Hawaiian stilt (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni), or ae’o, wades through the reflective brackish water of Kealia Pond. This endangered species prefers an optimal water depth of about 5 inches to hunt for fish and other aquatic organisms. The reflection visually reminds me of a Mobius strip.
