Familiar Australian Birds

Peeowit pee wee is all they ever say The magpie larks ihear and see every day Dainty black and white birds of town parks and countryside Mud nest builders known and loved Australia wide In cup shaped mud nest high on fork of tree The female lay pale spotted eggs of five to three In Spring their nesting borders against aerial predators they defend For protection their young on them does depend In the backyard often see them walking around In search of slugs and insects that they find on the ground Familiar birds to many and to me They are also known as mudlark and pee wee I see and hear them singing every day Peeowit pee wee is all they ever say.
