This blackbird:
Some may say he’s not
That pretty
But I think
With his sleek teal head feathers
He’s a real cracker!

Finch Kiss

She fluffs her feathers,
his cue to share from his bill
to hers, lovingly.

Winterwear

Small olive birds, their
Still bold black bands tell me, not
long back, they were gold.

Fence-sitters

At one end, grey squirrel
puffs his tail; at other, dark
rival fluffs feathers.
