Nonsense Creatures Limericks: The Nosebird of Nantucket
The Nosebird of Nantucket can,
Smell what's cooking in every pan;
When at your kitchen door,
His nose will make a roar -
He's greedier than any man.
Smell what's cooking in every pan;
When at your kitchen door,
His nose will make a roar -
He's greedier than any man.

Great limerick Paul.
I might have some scraps he can have. All of Audrey's leftovers...
You are really good at this sort of thing! I wonder if he was the mysterious person who knocked on my door and ran yesterday?
He nose what he likes.
Ha Ha Ha!
someone just needs to cook him! Where's Jeffrey, he will surely find a good recipe :)
That would be a lot of greedy...perhaps the bird just recognizes great cooking.
