Please Woodcutter

Please, Woodcutter, South of the border
Please don't cut that tree. A little bird is singing
Outside my window. She's not singing just for me.
She flies, winter, south, where it's warmer.
She lives in that tree. Please don't cut her woods, oh
Please don't cut her home. You love her just like me
Fact'ry Worker, north of the border
Won't you also care? That little bird, who
Sings, oh so sweetly, struggles through your smokey air.
She flies in Spring, North, where it's cooler
She builds there her nest in it lay her eggs, they
soon will be her babies. She sings to them while they rest.
Please, Woodcutter, south of the border,
Please don't cut that tree. A little bird is singing
Outside my window. She's not singing just for me.
Which animals do you see a lot? Your pet dog or bird? A raccoon in your back yard? Animals are fun to see. But they can also carry germs that can make us sick. Learn how you can keep yourself and your pets healthy.
L'Oie Toulouse? Qui, Moi?
About three years ago, a white Canada goose (Branta canadensis canadensis) or perhaps an imposter appeared on our NIEHS campus.
Being Single is "Not for the Birds"! – Canada Geese
This update is for those of you who are still young enough to remember. The White Goose (WG), known around campus and in the local press, as Toulouse, has spent many hours at NIEHS over the course of 4 plus years.
