Black Shouldred Kite

She has her young to feed in stick nest on tall tree nearby With flapping wings she hunts from the sunlit sky On the one spot whilst looking towards the ground To stalk small bird or small animal prey in the grass moving around With dark patch on bluish wings and unders grayish white The bird of prey known as the black shouldered kite In Australia her sort are a common sight They surprise their prey by dropping on it from a great height Three to four white eggs blotched brown in Spring the female lay To feed their young the parent birds take turns to feed their young by day Like a kite hanging in the sky an amazing sight to see Quite familiar birds to many and to me One can say of them courage they does not lack Humans walking near their nesting tree they even will attack.
