A perch with a view,
surveying the sunny day-
then to fly away.

Lean times are ahead,
feast of Portuguese laurel
berries-dine and dash.

A chance capture, with
picture, not net- hummingbird's
visit is fleeting.

June 1, 2018

In life a whirring
blur, in death still and peaceful-
dead hummingbird found.

Outside my window,
small welcome visitor waits-
spring arrives on wings.

A living rainbow,
walking beauty, showstopper-
peacock in sunshine.

Blighted Gary Oak
provides a woodpecker's lunch-
could be slim peckings.

In the garden, I
spy a bird spying me- red
amongst the spring green.

If only I could
go south for winter- without
flying commercial.

October 16, 2017

Fly away from here,
chill closes in by day- I
hear it’s warm down south.

August 19, 2017

A fine day for flights,
in air or of fancy- use
Saturday fully.

Lone bird braves storm, glides
between light and dark- journeys
sometimes best solo.

November 28, 2016

Beak full of breakfast,
sunny day in paradise-
loud caws call others.
