curlews mourn the loss
while the moon now pours silver
across concrete fields
Poetry is my aeroplane

It is Maniparna – I read an article in a scientific paper here in Australia, that if the government allocated $10million to habitat replenishment/protection, we could save all of our currently endangered species – works out to 50cents per person, or 4hours of defence/military spending.

But hardly the Government will do so. The story is similar in every country, I guess… 😦

I saw your insightful comment to Maniparna.
I definitely think that countries could better protect all of the native plants and animal species. My Dad got infuriated due to the amount the U.S. government spends on missiles and defense. When NASA was facing financial cuts he mentioned the elements which have more to do with humans, (than “just space,”) mechanical knowledge for quadriplegics, titanium testing for strength, medical advances due to technology learned from scientists.
My name is a bird, Robin, so my heart goes out to this long billed, “curlew.” It reminds me of a sandpiper. 🙂

Thanks Robin – I try not to get too angry 🙂 and I agree the curlew is like the sandpiper. I’m no bird expert so I find it very difficult to tell the difference between curlews, bitterns and pipers 🙂
