Though Some Birds I Do Know

Though some birds i do know by sight and their chirping and song On bird recognition i am often wrong Though i have been interested in wild birds since i was a boy And learning about them today i enjoy In knowledge of them i have some way to go And time once my friend it has become my foe I grew to love Nature in fields far away In Spring in the groves at the dawn of the day The nesting male song birds did whistle and sing The great gift of memory is a wonderful thing And though little about them i can claim to know My wonder of birds only does seem to grow I learn new things about them every day We do never stop learning as some like to say.
