When the birds arrive
it’s great to be alive.
It’s great to hear the birds
an’ to see the
caribou herds.
There’s lots of sunshine
‘cause we left
winter behind.
When I see the eagle soar
I know winter is no more.
When the birds
start to sing
then I know it’s spring.
When I see a swan
I know winter is gone.
When I see a crane
I know it’s spring again.
When I see the geese
I will be in peace.
When I see the ducks
I don’t need my mukluks.
When I hear the loon
he will sing me a tune.
But mosquitos
are a bummer
‘cause they spoil
my summer.
And when I only see crows
I dig out my
winter clothes.
