Pacific Gulls

By the far southern ocean one sees them every day
Big black and white gulls on beaches and sandy bay
Mostly in pairs for their aggression towards other birds known
Pacific gulls are birds who have ways of their own
They mostly eat shrimps and small life forms washed in by the tide
And unlike silver gulls they never venture far inland to the countryside
Or they never fly far out to ocean on the shore they like to stay
Like most creatures of Nature they live in their own way
Distinctive in their ways with a hoarse sort of call
Beside them most other gulls seem rather small
On small islands on nest of twigs on ground the female birds lay
Two to three olive blotched eggs from land a safe distance away
Of human kind they show a respectable fear
They fly away if to them you do come near.
