Rare Bird
RARE BIRD
Sitting outside my window
A Black throated finch is there
This little bird is on show
Seldom seen, could become rare.
A Black throated finch is there
Hoping he'll stay for some time
Seldom seen, could become rare
Pecks at a worm to dine.
Hoping he'll stay for some time
Content to continue grazing
Pecks at a worm to dine
This little bird is amazing.
Content to continue grazing
Each morsel chosen with care
This little bird is amazing
Of extinction he's unaware.
Each morsel chosen with care
Needs protection before decline
Of extinction he's unaware
His habitat men want to mine.
Needs protection before decline
Mining endangers we know
This Black-throated finch so fine
Sitting outside my window.
