Booby

A blue footed Booby called Dougal had a beak that was shaped like a bugle so it may have looked funny but it held all his money that Booby named Dougal was frugal. 11th September 2018 For contest 'Animal Limerick', sponsor Charles Messina

G'day Viv … drat it! When I read the title I thought this limerick may have been a bit risqué. Still in all, it is great - Lindsay

Very cute Viv. We have this bird here in Hawaii. He hangs around Sea Life Park for the free fish. They are clumbsy looking but cute! I enjoyed your limerick! Congrats on your win! : )

Love it Viv. Maybe he needs to cut loose with a little coin for some sock so his feet won't be so cold! Congrats

Viv, I find this limerick to be one of the best I've seen. It reminds me of myself when I look at these little guys with the blue feet. My feet have always been the biggest feature of my body. I ski barefooted -- I don' need any skis. Congrats on your win.
