Eastern Curlew

In the swampy green marshlands,

You will find a rare bird.

With a long, curved beak,

And a song not heard.

Long legs like a stick,  

Eating crabs and ghost shrimp.

This strange looking creature,

Walks with a limp.

Its life is endangered,

Due to hunting and loss.

Help protect the curlew,

And look after the moss.
