Regency Dandy

This Regency Dandy flying across the river, Jumping Jack Flash of kingfisher blue that I was lucky t see, this dainty dandy of English rivers and streams. A compact colourful apparition my sore eyes waited some Sixty years to see, others boast much earlier visitations of these Bluish-green, orange and red feathers attached to a Cyrano De Bergerac rapier beak, Outshining the honking harrying flotillas of Canada geese not capable of Competing with this fisher of minnows, as we strolled across the Georgian Bridge at Blatherwycke straddling the nonchalant flowing Nene of this shire of shires, Now of only one squire, but still many fine spires in this shire of Northampton.
