Dear Andrea, your poem is delightful! I love the playful format - it captures bird personalities in a quirky, memorable way. "King of Sky" for the eagle is so fitting, and "Sobbin' Robin" perfectly portrays their mournful song. "You CAN, Toucan" made me chuckle - such an encouraging toucan! The whole poem is clever and full of heart. Can't wait to see more! - Blessings, Daniel

Well I maxed myself out on birds. This was part 3. Maybe I should try fish or reptiles. I've done most other animals. If you want to see more bird footles just click on footles of mine. Thanks for commenting.

Awesome footles, Andrea. I especially like " Blue Jay Grew Grey (lol) These are fun to do but can be quite difficult. You did well on writing them :)

Thanks. I probably won't do more footles for a while. I've done birds, monkeys, gorillas, boy names, girl names, etc. all in a year's time. I can't think where else to go for ideas!!

I love this, the robbing robin and sobbing one is so cool and so innovative! You really are so good at these footles dear andrea. I love the fact that you mentioned macaw. We have a macaw haven, family birds and they are gorgeous! I should send you some pics of macaws. Pleasure always reading your work. Best wishes for the contest
