Concert of Birds

On a spring day enjoying a concert of birds
 listening to the soft coo-coo of Mourning Doves
the tap tap tap tap of a Downy Woodpecker
a duet between Song and House Sparrows
flashing in sunlight an American goldfinch
nesting in the cattails Red-winged blackbirds
listening to the raspy notes of European Starlings
singing its repertoire of songs a Northern Mockingbird
rejoicing in the melody of a warm spring day 

linking with dVerse Poets Pub - Hosted by Bjorn 
writing poetry from a list 

author's note:  I use the Cornell University Merlin App to identify bird sounds.  The birds included in my list poem are the birds I recorded yesterday.

Thank you for reading

  1. It's great to be able to have those sounds familiar to you. It takes a lifetime to to know them otherwise. Wonderful write, True, love it!
