Whiskers Wish to Widespread

Red whiskered bulbul with chicks


When the day breaks, you hear us whistle

Waking and wishing you a wonderful day

Watch over me with my whiskers well pleased,

Working dawn and dusk to widespread our breed. 

White cheeks are wow, while wings washed with brown

Were seen on the wooded areas once, 

Wisely wangled now to their way near Wight

Warm weather goes with their rearing way. 

While waving the tails and drooping the wings he welcomes his wife

When we're ready to breed, we won't mind 

Warding off within three thousands square yard

Walls or bushes or tree we'll never mind

Weaving the wide mouthed bow nest to warm our wee chicks

While one went to catch wasp; other wrapped the clutches to warm

Wipes off the waste week in and week out

Weeks later when the chicks grow wax and wane withers off the nest

Walking out of the nest, the young whiskers 

Whistle the song of widespread. 

This poem focuses on the breeding behaviour of the red whiskered bulbul bird. These days the birds are building nests very close to the human habitation. During this pandemics, many of you might have eye witnessed the breeding of bulbuls. This poem is a small effort of mine by clubbing the words starting from the alphabet 'W' and the breeding behavior of the bird.
