A Few Of The Bird-Family

The Old Bob-white, and Chipbird; The Flicker, and Chewink, And little hopty-skip bird Along the river-brink.

The Blackbird, and Snowbird, The Chicken-hawk, and Crane; The glossy old black Crow-bird, And Buzzard down the lane.

The Yellowbird, and Redbird, The Tomtit, and the Cat; The Thrush, and that Red_head_-bird The rests all pickin’ at!

The Jay-bird, and the Bluebird, The Sapsuck, and the Wren— The Cockadoodle-doo-bird, And our old Settin’-hen!
