The Bufflehead
The Buffleheads bob in the
bay
Male black and white,
female brown/gray
Compact ducks submerge to catch food
Large, rounded heads and short, wide bills
Noted for their fine mating
skills
Males swim in front as if
they’re rude
Nodding their heads like
no control
Like to nest in woodpecker
hole
Fly rapidly as if pursued

Like a bird
Be like a bird, you say
you’ve meant to mean
fly, be free
but what I hear
isn’t so flattering
dig in the dirt, really
that’s all you’re good for
surface the worms
we’ll ask you
when we need them
to do a dirty job
otherwise,
eat them
