In Moletani, Our Avian World is Poetry in Motion

“In Moletani’s haven, where beauty takes flight, Amongst the most exquisite birds, pure delight, Violet-backed Starlings shimmer in the sky, Their iridescence enchants every eye.

Emerald-spotted Wood Doves, a graceful pair, In the heart of the forest, where they share, Their soft cooing melodies, so sweet, In Moletani’s serenity, a timeless treat.

Golden-breasted Buntings, a radiant sight, In the golden grass, their colors ignite, Their presence, a touch of nature’s grace, In Moletani’s beauty, a sacred place.

Red-backed Shrikes, with plumage so bold, In the thorny bushes, their tales are told, Their songs, a melody of the wilderness’ song, In Moletani’s realm, where dreams belong.

Greater Striped Swallows, with wings so wide, In graceful flight, they gracefully glide, A symbol of journeys, both near and far, In Moletani’s splendor, beneath the star.

Cape Starlings, in the trees, they attract, Their calls echo, a vibrant impact, A reminder of Africa’s heart and soul, In Moletani’s haven, where dreams find their goal.

In Moletani’s embrace, where these birds take flight, Each one a testament to nature’s pure light, Their presence, a symphony, a work of art, In Moletani’s beauty, where dreams find their heart.”
