Storks Go Fishing - Lincoln Park Zoo Poem by Ima Ryma

Storks Go Fishing - Lincoln Park Zoo



The European white storks do
Some fishing in their wading pool
Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo.
Their long beaks are a useful tool.
Cheyanne and Jethro - quite a pair,
As they both go wading about,
Grabbing up all the live fish there.
They've quite a knack for catching trout.
Soon all the fish do disappear,
Swallowed whole as the storks delight
In getting to go fishing here,
With wings a flapping - quite a sight.

The sounds from Jethro and Cheyanne -
Live fish better than from a can.
