The Dive Bomb Bird

We can learn many things and find great amusement by watching the wildlife around us.

The dive-bomb bird furiously

Flaps it's wings

Keeping himself inline with his supper

Just above the water's edge

He hones in on his prey

Silently readying his body

For the swoop and dive

He pulls back slightly

X marks the spot!

And plunges his white, and grey feathered body

Into the roiling waves

Comical is he with half of himself

Hidden under the waves

While the other bobs about the ocean, topside 

Quicker than the draw

He flashes out of the grey currents

Like a slingshot

Carrying his much-earned prize

Take-out fish dinner

On the go!
