BIRD WEEK
Press on the number to see a picture for each haiku.
Top of the table
Is Robin, where they heed his
Need and feed him seed.
Peacocks blue and green
In hue that preen with pride their
Feathers many-eyed.
Sky high starling flock
Unfurling down whirling up
Curling twisting block.
Raucously squawking,
Squabbling crows, scattering,
Screeching, off they go.
Fat pheasants flying
Through the flak, as tweed jackets
Go on the attack.
Soaring on the breeze
An albatross drifts across
Roaring southern seas.
A cock crow wakes him,
Tells him that: "You're far from your
City flat". But where?
