With no fanfare,
the flighty fieldfare
foregoes her furtive foraging.
Sentry-settling in nearby tree
she waits at extravagant attention
for the intruder
to pass by.
I have no designs
on her berries,
they have stained her chest.

Nice one. I saw a bird in my garden yesterday that I couldn't identify. I thought it might be a fieldfare but on closer inspection it wasn't. Must get a better bird book!
Another beautiful stone. This is a perfect ode to the bird... :-)
