Noisy Miners

The birds who wage war on other birds every day
And from their territories do chase them away
The aggressive noisy miners in feathers of mottled grey
In mobs have even been known to tackle large birds of prey

Their territories with aggression they do defend
Any other species of birds to them are not a friend
They do have aggression in their warring call
With them it is all for one and one for all

They do invade territories as their numbers do grow
And to other birds mercy they never do show
For their aggressive behaviour noisy miners are known
In birds as in humans it is to each their own

Wherever they do live they do rule by fear
They do not tolerate other birds who to them live near
Birds of the park-lands of many a coastal town
To be amongst Australia's most aggressive flock birds their claim to renown.
