Visitors can collect all the bird illustrations and verse from "Bird Children" to print and construct a small book of verse for their dolls. Simply drag each png. into a Word Document, print, cut out all of the images the same size and staple the pages together at the left edge. Squeeze out some white school glue along the stapled edge of the pages and attach a cardboard cover.
Peacock's a bird of much renown
And wears a lovely cap and gown;
They say he's very, very vain
And likes to show his sweeping train.
And wears a lovely cap and gown;

The Peahen or Female Peacock
Young peachicks are very hard to bring up. They are delicate, and their mother, being of a roving disposition, leads them on long tramps over hill and dale, and wears them out.
One day we took peahen's eggs away and moved them to the nest of a common hen. Then we took the hen's eggs and put them in the nest of the peahen. The peahen seemed contented to warm the eggs day after day, till the baby chickens began to break their shells. No sooner had they got upon their little legs than she must have found that something was wrong! These chicks were not pea-chicks. She straightway turned her back upon them, as much as to say, "You can't deceive me; barnyard chickens are not pea-chicks; "and she walked off, and refused to feed or care for them.
