"Lo, the evening has come down upon the shore
And in the fading light the seabirds come flying to their nests.
Who knows when the chains will be off,
and the boat, like the last glimmer of sunset,
vanish into the night?"

Japanese koi fish, also called Japanese carp, are by themselves unremarkable, lackadaisical fish. But every once in a while, one becomes ambitious: if they can jump to the top of a waterfall, they transform into a dragon! This inspired the famed Pokemon Magikarp

Always liked this illustration by John Bauer for the story “Agneta and the Sea King”. The fact that one never gets a good look at the Sea King’s face always made that character seem kind of ominous.

Reverse Mermaid - a humorous spin on this ! 😉
The second image is actually a Magritte that became part of a bizarre press hoax in 1973: https://t.co/vcKfu0WvtZ
(I think we can agree we prefer original mermaids! 🙈)

The Nicole are water spirits on Brittany’s north coast; fairly benign but mischievous, they tangle fishing nets and loosen anchor cables.
Conversely, the south coast was once noted for a most malevolent mermaid who crushed children against rocks for mere sport.

Hans Christian Andersen's, "The Little Mermaid," illustrated by Edmund Dulac. The colours are sublime. The initiation of females into the world of men whilst their father is absent is what this story symbolises.

Greek myth had several classes of water spirits: Naiads are fresh bodies of water, Oceanids represent saltwater, and Nereids represent the Mediterranean, to say nothing of sea and river gods. Despite this any nymph can appear in other waters

Loch Iorsa on the Isle of Arran has it's very own monster myth. The loch's name means 'loch of the snakes/ serpents'. This serpent is perhaps a wurm, a dragon with no legs nor wings from folklore.
