In the forest I see so many birds,
In fact, the sheer number of them is a little absurd.
So I’ll just name twelve of my favorite ones:
There are robins, cardinals, and wrens, underneath the sun.
Sparrows, blue jays, and mourning doves, who love to eat,
And hawks, falcons, who catch other birds under their feet.
Then there are woodpeckers, goldfinches and chickadees too,
Finally, there is the red-winged blackbird with it’s high-pitched coo.
I love to watch these birds in the wild, whether they are in a river or a nest,
There are many more birds out there, but these twelve are the best.
