Surfin’ Bird, Bluebird

May the Bird of Paradise Fly up Your Nose

“Rockin’ Robin….”

My budgie loves “Blackbird” by the Beatles. She gets excited over the bird chirps and chatters along with it.

Great list.

Mockingbird hill-Doris Day

May the Bird of Paradise Fly up Your Nose

“Eagle” by ABBA. “El Condor Pasa (If I Could)” and “Sparrow” by Simon and Garfunkel.

The first song I thought of was “White Bird”, by It’s A Beautiful Day.

Just make it a road act, and hit the road.

Yellow bird, up high in banana tree …

When the swallows return to CapistranoThe dicky-bird hopIf I were a blackbird

By the time I get to Phoenix.

I’m begging you Please make it stop !

‘’Everybody knows the the bird is the word’’

Judging by the comments, Moondog is WRONG.

[nerd alert] There was a great episode of ‘Batman The Brave And The Bold’ where Bats loses his memory and becomes crime lord of Gotham. he has to be rescued by Huntress, Black Canary, and Catwoman. They do a nice little ditty “The Birds Of Prey.”

“There’ll Be Bluebirds Over the White Cliffs of Dover”

“When the Red, Red Robin…”

“His Eye Is on the Sparrow”

“La Paloma”

“Let’s All Sing Like the Birdies Sing”

“Snowbird”

“Bye, Bye, Blackbird”

Pretty soon it might be Bye Bye Birdie.

Or, he could just cover songs by the Byrds and the Eagles.

I wondered if GC’s autocensor would pass the title of that Gilbert and Sullivan classic. It would probably censor the lyrics, innocent though they are.

I love Ann Murrey’s Snowbird.

Hey Birddog get away from my quail !

Tern, Tern, Tern ;-)

Like a bird on a wire, he has tried in his way to be free.

I muted the audio on my computer.

May the Bird of Paradise fly up your nose.

Angry Bird by Al Stewart.

The bird is the word.

All songs by The Black Crows, Counting Crows and Sheryl Crow maybe?

Just a few songs I have not seen mentioned yet, off the top of my head: Una Paloma Blanca. On the Wings of a Snow White Dove. You are the Wind Beneath My Wings. Tennessee Bird Walk. A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square. His Eye is on the Sparrow. Oklahoma (We sit and talk and watch a hawk making crazy circles in the sky).

I wonder what his swan song will be.

Oh, somebody give Pilsner a marshmallow!!!!!!!!! :)

“Birds of Paradise” (Pretenders) and “Wings of a Dove” (Madness).

You guys OKAY with bird poetry?

Little seagull in the sky

You make me glad that cows can’t fly

Wait, NOW he’s a parrot? Just a couple of weeks ago you were claiming he was a parakeet!

Robin Trower’s Day of the Eagle.
