Waders On The Shore

​

 

In the shallow waters

Dabbling in the sun

A pair of dainty avocets

Surrounded by their young

On a beach of shingle

Almost out of sight

Ringed plover known as little

In shades of brown and white

High above the busy lakes

The buzzards wheel and soar

Out of sight and out of mind

Of waders on the shore.
