I Saw A Bunting Today

I Saw A Bunting Today

I saw a bunting in my yard

And he was quite a sight

He was a beautiful painted one

And man he really shined

A glass of wine encouraged me

To put a feeder up

I didn’t know what I might see

But I bought an ID book

The book had many colorful pictures

Of birds of all types

I wondered which of them I’d see

If I fed them what they liked

The feeder was a real success

With buntings and cardinals there

And a flock of blackbirds too

And finches everywhere

I put a puzzle on a folding table

With many jumbled pieces

We worked on it every time we could

Until it was completed

When all the pieces were in place

The birds were illustrated

With the beautiful painted ones

And the others appreciated
