Birds in Town

Who are Those Birds?


Who are those little songbirds in town?
The mama has feathers of grayish brown.
The male shows off like a team mascot.
In red feathers he thinks he's hot.

They might live in a shady tree
Or in the backyard for all to see.
The male cardinal helps his wife.
These special birds mate for life.

They eat insects and love birdseed.
Fruit and buds are what they need.
We like their tunes and hope they stay.
The cardinals sing for us every day.
