Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Barrow's Goldeneye - LP Zoo


Barrow's goldeneye ducks do do

A lot of fancy diving dips

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.

Main reason for these dunkin' trips

Is to seek out critters that be

A suitable catch of the day.

Underwater the duck does see,

Then grabs the invertebrate prey.

The males are mostly black and white,

Females grayish with copp'ry head.

In the water, both quite a sight -

Divers determined to get fed.


In the water or on the fly,

Always watching with golden eye.
