Familiar black and white Australians one often does see
As they raise their wings they does call out peewee
In cup shaped nest high on branch of tree the female bird lay
Three to four eggs with pink spots through the gray
They are known as magpie lark or mudlark or as peewee due to their song
Once seen and once heard one never again get them wrong
They find their food small insects mostly on the ground
With their heads ever bobbing as they walk around
Their familiar song they sing every day of the year
Peewee peewee one often does hear
Among the many Australian species of birds one of the better known
One can say of them they have ways of their own
Once seen and once heard them you will know again
As memories of them are not hard to retain.
