The non passerine SWIFTS

A visit from Africa
Who comes back eVery year
Two toes forward
Two toes backward
It is very clear

They own a dedication
To flight and all it holds
Long pointed wings
Short fork tails
A high pitched scream
That never fails

To frighten people
Becoming rare
On the red list
Thus we should care
In April and May they all arrive
And in August they leave
It’s too survive

They come to mate
And for life they pair
To established nests
On houses where
Human beings frequent, they
Can participate in a friendly way

Bu having Swift boxes
Fixed to our walls
ready for when the
Visitor calls.

They eat flying insects
And spiders too
Their ability to fly
It’s true
Is remarkable
These
Opodidae
Missed my me
When they deem To fly

away
Imagine the journey
Via France
All the way to Africa
And not by chance
Such a journey
The strength they need
To commit and return
To mate and feed.

Passerine birds are many
Their toe structures 3 toes forward
One toe backwards
Perching or song birds.

Non Passerine like Parrots Pigeons Ducks Turkeys
Sea birds,SWIFTS,Quails, Pelicans and man others
