Red-tailed heroes

These creatures are glue
Sticking the animals together
Their feathers are as soft as worn-out leather
They fly around in the sky that is a deep shade of blue
Deforestation is like a bulldozer for these poor birds
To protect these birds we can use our words
Planting trees that can grow upwards
To create places for their nests and stop their population going downwards
These birds with tails the colour of fireworks
Are disappearing like chameleons
We need to stop being jerks
This is no longer a show for a comedian
Save the feathered friends
We are going to hit lots of dead-ends
Unless we act
There is nothing we can do to make their disappearance happen in slow-motion
