Pied Beauty
1877
Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-1889)

Glory be to God for dappled things —
     For skies of couple-colour as a brinded cow;
          For rose-moles all in stipple upon trout that swim;
Fresh-firecoal chestnut-falls; finches' wings;
     Landscape plotted & pieced — fold, fallow, & plough;
          And all trades, their gear & tackle & trim.
               All things counter, original, spare, strange;
Whatever is fickle, freckled, (who knows how?)
     With swift, slow; sweet, sour; adazzle, dim;
          He fathers-forth whose beauty is past change:
               Praise him.

"The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea."
Tagore - Bengali poet and novelist

Lobster, aka homarus americanus (aka hummer in German and Norwegian)

Albino lobster at the Oceanarium outside of Bar Harbor

Rather large lobster at the Oceanarium

HOW DOES IT WORK?

1. Lobster attracted by bait in "pocket" (A),
finds opening in "head" (B) leading into
"kitchen" compartment (C).

2. Lobster wanders around kitchen to
find way out. Easiest to climb inner
head (D) leading into "parlor" (E).

3. Lobster can get out of parlor
once in a while but even then
usually returns.
