Chickadees…A Poem.
Chickadees are my favorite winter bird, they are so small and yet survive the harshest weather. They have now returned and so I thought it was time for a new poem about these friendly little birds. I hope you will enjoy.
Chickadees
Chickadee bouncing through the air,
Floating fluff on a wave so fair.
Singing it’s name loud and with cheer,
So pleasant, I just love to hear.
Always going from morn to night,
Whether sunny or stormy fright.
With feathers spread out soft and fine,
On coldest days kept warm to shine.
This little bird is such a friend,
No matter what it will attend,
Gently landing, it’s very bold,
What a joy on my hand to hold.
So amazing, this bird so small,
Some are tough, it beats them all.

I have had quite a few different species of birds sit on my hand. And arm, shoulders, head, as many as 21 birds at a time.😂😁

I know what you mean. I saw the most beautiful huge yellow butterfly with black markings yesterday, but it was too fast for me to capture. It was absolutely gorgeous!

Sounds like the tiger swallowtail. They have all left here now, heading south. They migrate like monarch butterflies.

Could you make a poem about Niagara waterfalls as well ?

It’s possible, but I have never seen Niagara Falls so it makes it a bit harder.

You could write about it at least…

I have been thinking of doing a short series looking at different things in this big province of Ontario, and that would be part of it for sure!

This is one of the bird chirps I can here and I say “Chickadee!” I immediately recognize them. They’re one of my favorites, too. ☺️
