Title: A Time to Unwind - A song written about our downtown Rochester falcons Post by: patsy6 on 14-Jun-16, 02:19:31 PM With my friend Ray Baumler's permission, I am sharing with you a song that he wrote recently about our downtown Rochester falcon family. I let him and his partner Sue know about the falcons perhaps two or three years ago, and they've been watching the cam during nesting season ever since. Ray and Sue are excellent musicians, and Ray is a great songwriter as well. I'd love to hear them sing it sometime.
A TIME TO UNWIND by Ray Baumler, copyright 2016 In a nest at the top of a building The eggs of the falcon were laid Mother and Father would warm them And beautiful babies were made I look at the family each morning My Macintosh shows them to me I’m struck by their vibrant behavior And intrigued by all that I see Chorus: I soon must get back to the news online To learn all the things I should know But I’d rather be watching the falcons And observing the little ones grow The parents are hunting zealously Food for the young chicks to eat Feeding the babies, beak to beak Filling their bellies with meat The youngsters are growing rapidly Getting bigger and bigger each day Still they are mostly balls of fluff Too young to be flying away Chorus: So much of the news is distressing The good is eclipsed by the bad Life can be so disappointing But at times it’ll make you feel glad The birds are a healthy distraction Calming my uneasy mind, Witnessing closely the action And enjoying a time to unwind Chorus: Title: Re: A Time to Unwind - A song written about our downtown Rochester falcons Post by: Dumpsterkitty on 14-Jun-16, 02:22:40 PM WOW!
