Gacked from arnie1967. Pretty pictures with this one!



MAGPIE: You are one happy bird, a mischeivous

flutterbright. You may be annoying at times,

but you're very attracti- ooh, shiny!
T.P. Cameron Wilson
c. World War I
===========================

The magpies in Picardy
Are more than I can tell.
They flicker down the dusty roads
And cast a magic spell
On the men who march through Picardy,
Through Picardy to hell.

(The blackbird flies with panic,
The swallow goes with light,
The finches move like ladies,
the owl floats by at night;
But the great and flashing magpie
He flies as artists might.)

A magpie in Picardy
Told me secret things--
Of the music in white feathers,
And the sunlight that sings
And dances in deep shadows--
He told me with his wings.


Feathered Spirit - Which Birds Do You Flock With?

This was one of those *difficult* quizzes to take. The questions and answer choices were kinda interesting, but, well, not many of them really fit me. You can tell it was written by somebody youngish and Gothish. But I did my best, and I am pleased. Heh! *ruffles feathers*

'Cept I *wanted* to be an owl, dammit:

CARDINAL: Some might call you proud, some might

call you shy, some wouldn't notice you at all

but that's all right by you. You're

reserved, and content to be an enigma to all

but your very closest friends.
The Cardinal Bird
William Davis Gallagher
Date unknown

A day and then a week passed by:
The redbird hanging from the sill
Sang not; and all were wondering why
It was so still--
When one bright morning, loud and clear,
Its whistle smote my drowsy ear,
Ten times repeated, till the sound
Filled every echoing niche around;
And all things earliest loved by me,--
The bird, the brook, the flower, the tree,--
Came back again, as thus I heard
The cardinal bird.

Oh, but I like the cardinal! This is the first one I saw, that made me want to try it. Must run and see if it has one of those "see all results" options... I'd love to see all the pictures.

Yuppers, they have all results. Huh, seems like the best pictures are the ones I've seen. And yeah, the owl really *would* have suited you. Try again, mate! (And heh, guess the magpie's the best for me, after seeing the rest...)
