Small but mighty

Supreme guarder of territory

An alarm sounds immediately

Any intruder dares to enter their vast area

Shouting so loudly there is no mistake

You are an unwanted invader

Swooping and flying down

But not close enough to touch

Just a flash of blue

Often not even seen

Before the alarm sounds loudly again

Catching you unawares from a different angle

A small missile flying around

A flash of blue

Grand protector

Small and mighty

I enjoyed this poem - thank you! A flash of blue? Which bird is this about?

Thanks, I can't think why that didn't occur to me. They are indeed beautiful little things!
