RESEARCHERS DIARY OF AMAZING BIRDS

I jealous the peacocks art

Colors, distinct and bright

Wiggle that feathery tail

Walls, align and act

Here lies the pretty dame

Haughty campaign and pranks

Kick on the silly game

Newborns, asleep, awaits

I cherish the Manakins dance

Steps, distinct and light

Move to the soundless beats

Lek, moonwalk and snap

Here sits the nosy judge

Finicky in taste and calm

So much is done for one

Practice indulged years long

I admire the great roadrunners treat

Date, distinct and right

Its either a splendid meal

Or he coos and wag his tail

Don't give up, she might agree

Together, we can forever be

Keep up the classic steel

Gentlemen, the ladies need

I love the superb lyrebirds voice

Songs, distinct and tight

When he grabs the microphone

Techno beats and 80’s Jazz

Beauties from far and wide

Spectate and vote for one

Talents coerced by zeal

Albums, that forever lives

I adore the western grebes ballet

Footworks, distinct and fast

Defying gravities pull

Walking on water Jew

Hydrodynamic lift

Feet slaps and splash

Lets go, it's me and you

Put on your dancing shoes
