DUCK (General)

Okay wise guy. Who put the bi-carb in the water?

EAGLE

I see all. Nothing escapes my eye

It’s there over the hills. That’s where I want to be. In a land so wide. Yeah !

FALCON

I see with eyes that yearn for better things. I see the harmless, I see the great.

Perhaps you too could see all things if you took the time to allow the truth to open to you.

FLAMINGO

What the h... have we got here? Don't you know you can't do that? Don't you know that that sort of thing is not allowed?

Don't you have any sense?

Gee..................................there's one born every minute!

GEESE

Off we go. Off we go. Hurry along up there, can’t you see we’ve something to do?

Hurry along up there, can’t you see we’ve somewhere to go?

Hurry along! Hurry along!

HERRON

What's it all about, Alfie? Is it just for the moment we live? (Song-Cilla Black)

A little melancholy am I for I see things as they are. No, I am not depressed; I am just realistic.

I see things the way that they are and sometimes that is sad. I am pleased to be me. I am pleased to be able to see things as they are.

As I said; I am not depressed; however I am a deep thinker and that is good; for seeing things as they really are helps me to stay on the right path.

Yes, sometimes it is difficult not to judge. Sometimes it is difficult to remain objective; but these things I strive for to allow me the pleasure of seeing things just as they are.

A contradiction! No, a reality.

I would rather see things as they are and remain objective and real, than see things through the eyes of dust and live unrealistically.

So you see, clarity of sight brings pleasure.

KIWI

What’s in a name? I don’t know what all the fuss is about? You think it’s funny? How would you like to be laughed at and scorned by all and sundry?

Eh? Yeah! Not good! Yeah! Not good!

KOOKABURRA

There are two of us; the one that we 'keep to ourselves' and the one that we 'show in public'....

That is not to say that we are 'two faced'; certainly not. We are shy and we like to baffle as well... This has the effect of keeping our enemies at bay...

OSTRICH

A hunting we will go. A hunting we will go. High ho the dairy'o; a hunting we will go.

Better take your knife and fork! There's trouble a brewin'. Yep, that's right! Trouble; with a capital T.

Be prepared; that's all I can say!!!

OWL (General)

Some say that we are reflecting wisdom. What do you say? Are your actions wise? Do they need some more thought?

Would it be wise to think more carefully just now? Indeed. This is what the owl is telling you.

BE wise. BE thoughtful; for wisdom and careful thought is just what the doctor ordered.

PEACOCK

Well, well, well. That's a fine howdy-doodie. Well, well, well. That's about the strangest thing I've heard.

You don't say! What! There's more! I'm all ears!!!!!!!

PELICAN

Boy oh boy. What’s on the menu today?

PENGUIN

Boy oh boy. Excitable you say! There’s so much to do.

So little space. Not much time…….I get tongue tied!

PHEASANT

Black is white. White is black. It is and it’s always going to be

SNOWY OWL

Eyes are so important; they transfer image to reality. They are responsible for what we see in detail or in part. Yet would we blame them for our inner response?

Yes; is it the fault of the eyes; or the thoughts of man?

Eyes..........!   Yes...

SPARROW (Requested May 2005)

Fly away little bird. Fly away to where we can be seen.

We want to be seen, you know.

Yes, we are gentle folk who want to be seen.

No sense hiding from the world. Oh no. We want to be seen and we want to enjoy all that life has in store.

Oh yes. We want to enjoy all that life has in store for those who choose to live life to the full.

Otherwise why be here?

SWAN

Hip, hip, hoorah! Did you see that? Hip, hip hoorah! Together we can get through.

Yes, there will be tough times; sure. But always 'together' we shall get through. Just you wait and see.

TURKEY

What's up doc? Too many cooks in the kitchen?

WEDGE TAIL EAGLE

You are what you are and nothing else....
