Dusky Woodswallows

Dusky brown birds with white tips on either wing
It is a simple song they have to sing
In family groups their territories and nests they do defend
On each other for support they do depend
They flock together as a family
And chase aerial predators from their territory
In cup shaped nest of twigs on fork of tree
The female lay brown dotted eggs of four or three
They eat insects such as butterflies, flies and bees
And nectar from the blossoms of the blossoming trees
Sparrow sized birds in small flocks they reside
And as migratory they do travel far and wide
Once seen mental images of them you will retain
And them you are bound for to recognize again.
