A friend reminded me of something I'd not seen
since before I began birding 20 years ago.
Blake may not have had much of a Life List
-- in fact some of his sightings (visions)
may never have
been seen by any others, but he had an eye
for everyday birds, too:

> A Robin Redbreast in a cage,
> Puts all Heaven in a rage.

> A skylark wounded on the wing
> Doth make a cherub cease to sing.

> He who shall hurt the little wren
> Shall never be beloved by men.
