Storm Petrel

Loon

Rail

Plover

Pigeon

 

Hoatzin

Kingfisher

 

 

birds interesting a collection from nature- all so beautiful The Storm Petrel's are small birds that seem to hover, little sea birds that appear to be walking on the water. Loons unable to walk on land they shuffle like old people- oh so graceful and skillful underwater can run across a lake . . . Rails just love eating dense green vegetation, Plover's like to run across a sandy beach hunting; Roosting on a building is the beautiful Pigeon, Oh so remarkable the Hoatzin is intriguing; And electric blue Kingfishers are truly amazing. ___________________ October 31, 2015 Combination of - Haiku, Couplet, Free Verse, Quintain For the contest, A Poets Dozen (12 lines) Sponsor, Silent One Third Place

Thanks for the visit and comment Andrea, my Halloween is quiet, no kids in this building and I don't see any walking around either outside, its just not that kind of neighborhood... Halloween is not like when I was a kid that is for sure ...
