Please let me explain,
All you need do is train
All your pigeons to fly upside down.

When installed in the park
Became a good mark
And henceforth stooled on by squeal-pigeons.

Now breaking the soil is a beak.
I've added compost
But the forecast is frost.
The outlook for the species is bleak.

The claws of her feet
Had been caught in the street
'Neath the rim of a personhole cover.

Who hunted the eggs of the plover.
But she sat down to rest
Right on top of the nest,
So her search for the eggs was all over.

To eat when I can;
When there's nuffin' to eat, I eat nuffin'."

You can tell by the size of its muffin.
And speaking of which,
Take hold of the bitch;
You will see that it needs a good stuffin'!

"From the waves, you stay just out of reach."
They find food in the sand,
And it tastes mighty grand.
For the sandpiper, life is a beach.
--- Anon
As proud as the sky-soaring eagle.
You will see by the sea,
If you walk there with me,
It shit proudly on me and my beagle.
--- David A Brooks Q
From sunup to sundown they feed.
And because they have supped,
My bank has been rupt.
And I am the one who's in need.
--- Lims Unlimited
But shopping has brought something new.
They cry like the dickens
Because they're no chickens.
Now their soup contains parts of the zoo.
--- Tom Patton P9802
Was delivering a baby to Tork.
He spilled its milk bottle,
Had to shut down his throttle,
And feed it some cheese with a fork.

With a bill that resembled a fork.
Unable to spear
A fish in the ear,
He had to eat liver and pork.

With love and affection we'd greet.
Then enter our son,
At the time only one,
Thought he had removable feet.

Whose size doesn't do what his hue can,
His color scheme rates
A succession of dates,
Which consist of just settin' and lookin'.
--- Anon
With his odd-looking beak and his blue can.
He can shove his red beak
In a place I can't speak --
It is much more than I can or you can.

The back yard is a Land of Goshen.
They endlessly prattle
Of thistle and thatle,
And complain that we're serving slow motion.

Who, of felines was very much wary,
Did provoke a small chat
Without knowing that's that...
The results were not quite salutary.

Was famed for his sense of frivolity.
When his program inferred
That he ISA bird,
He blamed, not his code, but zoology.

It took him a week,
To sharpen his beak,
And a month to replenish his soul.

Ornithologists reassure me,
Without obvious perk
A woodpecker's work
Qualifies as pure skull drudgery.

About which I had never heard.
Where would I have to go,
To see xemes in the snow.
I'll bet they are feathered, not furred.

I said, "Dearest Jilly,
At times you are silly.
It's a duck that is blocking the dock."

Discovered his eyes worked much grander!
For now he could choose
'Tween a boy and girl goose.
Said he, "I'll just take a gander"!

Where they flock, they just make a mess.
Canucks send them to us,
And they don't come by bus.
"Bad cess!" is all that I can express.

This is file ldk
Angelically lovely, I've heard.
It's delicate cry
Is modestly shy,
But it sure leaves a big pile of turd.

Let me stroke you and tickle your rear.
You're so wobbly and sweet
With such neat little feet,
I could eat you for afters, m'dear.

Met an inarticulate duck,
Whose lack of a quack
Made it fall back
On a highly chickenlike "cluck".

By bullets and missles
And ear-splitting whistles
Of mortar and similar flak.

They laugh, whatever you say.
So I find a duck,
A much nicer fuck,
And so much more easy to pay!

I saw two fishermen try their luck.
When asked if water-rats
They were trying to catch?
They said, "No, we are fishing for ducks."
--- Anon
Of bras to hatch eggs -- quite a ruse.
One such is Miranda,
She hatched out a gander,
And often she now gets a goose.
--- Tiddy Ogg
Over how much he'd take for her snaggle
Toothed blowjobs (abuse!),
Then stuff your loose goose
Down her gander till she made you gaggle.

They do it to keep out of sight.
But once they get here,
With upended rear,
They dump Montezuma's delight.
--- Barbara Tepper
Excreting in tons fro and to.
It rarely is that
We clean up what's shat;
It's too hard to get up that goo.

Who grew an enormous duck bill.
He waddled and quacked,
Grew feathers on his back,
And now lives by the pond on the hill.

Took his life, one day, in his hands.
Whilst observing a duck,
He ran out of luck
And gone are his fatherhood plans.

His buddies and he
Flew north in a V
Seeking mates, water, sun, and success.

On a river where others would drown,
She floats like a dream
Eider down- or upstream,
And what bears her up is her down.

Was indulging his hobby, I've heard;
When besmirched by a duck,
He gasped, "What frightful luck"-
And continued his watch undeterred.

So he ran to the house of maid Heather;
Drank warm ale from her kegs,
Found the nest 'twixt her legs,
And he got his first taste of bird feather!

"Grackle is the harsh word
For a beautiful bird.
Homely Starlings have the gorgeous name."

Raped a bird-loving maid in the park.
A splendid surprise,
Such vigor, such size --
She really just came for a lark.

And spied in the brush two bare asses.
He'd been looking for crows
But forgot about those,
And his gonads became swollen masses.

Was watching two birds that were flittin',
And said, "It's a cinch
That one is a finch,
But I'll wait till the other is sittin'."
--- Alsops Foibles
Went for a stroll in the park.
He quick struck a pose,
As he rose on his toes,
And said: "Hark! I just heard a lark!"

Who watch little birdies for kicks;
These two-legged friends
Have feathery ends;
The ones that I watch are the chicks.

Cliffside, had to let off a sneeze. He
In horror profound
Knocked an egg to the ground,
Cried, "Damn, I prefer over easy."

Who had a severe case of Myopia.
He mistook a jay
For St. Vincent Millay,
And wrote poems of bad ornithophobia.

And this is a true story you know.
He couldn't speak French
And this stupid wench
At a bank counter, kept telling him to go.
--- Anon
So woke in a terrible fright!
All was in wrecks
And his travellers' checks
Had totally disappeared from sight.
--- Anon
So searched for a bank in the town.
If Thomas Cook
Was no crook,
A refund would be back in his gown.
--- Anon
And "waste time on him" they would not.
Then I came in,
And then he did grin,
'Cause he saw I'd a British passport.
--- Anon
But suddenly there was a doubt.
He turned to me
And I did see,
That on one line there was still nowt.
--- Anon
He just didn't seem to want to reply.
Then he told me
Not too boldly
That he dug graves for those who die.
--- Anon
But (and here's what reminds me of you)
He asked me to write
If I felt 'twas allright,
That he looked after penguins in a zoo!
--- Anon
Was indulging his hobby, I've heard;
When besmirched by a puffin,
He remarked, "That was 'nuffin" --
And continued his watch undeterred.

Had a large loaf of bread in his hands.
Along came a seagull
And swooped like an eagle,
And left a message on his hands.
