Moyra Donaldson - Bird Man Dave #17

Bird Man Dave

If you want to know the name

of a bird you’ve spotted,

or what the moth is

that’s been attracted

to the light outside,

Dave’s the go-to-man.

Which is why he’s able

to tell me that the bird

printed on the fabric

of the dress I’m wearing

tonight, is a scissor tailed

fly catcher.
