This strip reminds me of "The Monk and the Fish", an animated short with a similar theme.

Thanks for sharing! Besides thematic similarity also visually pleasing.

I love Buttercup Festival so much. You could frame any strip, any panel and put it on your wall.
I feel like the artist really captured Bill Watterson's nature aesthetic.
What was the other one, the spooky monochrome ink comic, felt a bit like Spooky Stories you Tell in the Dark but less horrifying but still pretty horrifying? Like maybe midway between Spooky Stories and Edward Gorey. Deadmouse? Ballad! Ballad... I'm gonna go be nostalgic about that.

If you told me this was fanart of Ecco the Dolphin, I would accept it.
