Present Day
Jane Marie writes: My friend, Johanna Eversole, showed me this photo of a Great Egret she'd taken here on Amelia Island, Florida and let me share it with you. She and her son occasionally cast a net for shrimp. This beautiful birdie, she kindly calls Freddie the Freeloader, watches for them and accepts any of the tidbits they offer. Not only is this creature pure and perfect, but smart.

Fernandina, Florida
Late 1800s
Grandmother Peeper writes: I seen one a them birds aflyin' the other day. I admit to it. It was a pretty thing, but sure as a croakin' frog can wake the dead at night, them egrets fly high up and let loose, if ya understand my meanin', and it always lands on the clean clothes ahangin' on the line. That's the way of it.
The Goodbye Lie Diaries- What are they?
Through the magic of electronics, the characters in my Goodbye Lie Series set on Amelia Island can talk to me from the late 1800s and I to them. It makes for some interesting conversations.- Jane Marie
