Beautiful birds that brighten dull and gloomy British winters
With weird and wonderful names
Were those who named them drunk or starving?
How many types of finches and tits?
Makes me chuckle when I hear, read, say those names
But leave those crazy humans aside for a moment
Does a tit know that we call it a tit?
Does it care?
Is a tit known by any other name diminished in any way?
My favourite tit surely is the blue tit
Just look at those brilliant colours
And that stare!
She has the look of a professional boxer
About to knock you out
What a stunner!
Can there be a better day than one spent in silence
Watching these lovelies
Going about their daily business?
