Bird Cinquain Poem

Our casual teacher Minh set us a challenge to create cinquain poems
about birds that we see around our town of Byron Bay.

Firstly,she showed us the structure of the poem: line 1 - two syllables  line 2 - four syllables  line 3 - six syllables line 4 - eight syllables line 5 - two syllables

Minh then set us to work in groups and come up with ideas of our own. 
Here are the ideas that we came up with:
 

seagull hunts in the sea eats fish and soggy chips  webbed feet for swimming in water sea bird

rainbow bird, lorikeet blue head, a green collar all flashing colours, bright plumage rainbow

laughing kookaburra bashes prey on the ground  eats lizards, snakes, invertebrates hunter
