The songs of a warbler
Sometimes sharp, screechy and shrill,
At times, long, frilly and trill,
Many a time, melodious and entertaining!
Warblers may look like a brown sparrow,
But they belong to a large family of
Muscicapidae – with sounds of varied tones,
Many shades of brown, yellow, green and grey!
The pale footed bush warbler,
Tip toe, tip toeing on the evergreen grass,
Hip hop, hip hopping in the thick bushes,
Flying with ease around trees and the pine forests!
The large billed bush warbler
Prefers low thorny scrubby terrain,
They fly into rank grass and fringing forest,
Active arboreal birds with rounded wings!
The brown bush warbler loves
The grassy highs and downs,
Gliding through the breezy hillside,
Singing a merry, catchy tune!
The Indian great reed warbler
Flies around reed beds and shrubs,
Ponds, lakes, canals and
Into the islands of Andaman and Sri Lanka!
The paddy field warbler
Loves the rice and paddy fields,
Elephant grass, wispy willows
Wow! The Sugarcane fields too.
Wish I were a whimsical warbler,
Flying along hills, fields and forests,
Singing with the rhythmic wind,
Whistling wonderful songs of love!
