Cool for Cat(bird)

The boys were getting restless, they hadn't had a tick.
Those that were around, were to far to far to twitch.

Then came word from Cornwall, of a mega Yankee dude.
To pass on this British tick, would be just plainly rude.

So an early start was waiting, and they drove down through the mist.
The trip was almost a disaster, when the parking place they missed.

They soon recalibrated, and parked in the right field
and waited for the mist to lift, to see what was revealed.

A tense and nervous waiting game, came as no surprise
as the gathering crowd waited, for the Sun to arise.

A shout went out, followed by a scramble to the right
scanning of the bush tops,and then it was in sight.

A small grey bird, with brick red vent and neat black cap,
and we all knew that it was cool to be a cat.
