Rare Finch

RARE BIRD Sitting outside my window a Black-throated Finch is there. This little bird now is on show seldom seen, could become rare. A Black-throated Finch is there, hoping he'll stay for some time, seldom seen, could become rare, pecks at a worm to dine. Hoping he'll stay for some time, content to continue grazing. he pecks at a worm to dine this little bird is amazing. Content to continue grazing each morsel he chooses with care, this little bird is amazing, of extinction he's unaware. Each morsel he chooses with care, needs protection before decline. Of extinction he's unaware his habitat men want to mine. Needs protection before decline, this little bird now is on show, a Black-throated Finch so fine Sitting outside my window.
