Lily-pad walkers, dads on duty
Lily-pad walkers, dads on duty
Big song, brown bird, endless variety
Snakeskin in the nest, bugs on the wing
Big wings, long legs, wetland lives
One family, many wild strategies
Born to sprint the open plains
Blue-belly push-ups on every fence
Built for rivers, born to slide
Tiny warbler, ocean-crossing athlete
Repeat the phrase-own the dawn.
Long tail, tight flock, big personality
Beat the dusk-hunt like an evening bat
Wrinkles that breathe-rivers that live.
Rainforest shadow with a heat-sense
Texas' climbing rodent patrol
Stripes you can trust
Stand still. Blend in. Puff loud.
Big. Silent. Africa's rock python.
The leaf-green insect hunter of the treetops
The snake that stabs sideways
Coiled like a leaf, strikes like lightning
Swamp guardian with a cotton-white warning
A branch that bites.
Horns in the sand, strike from stillness
