Australia Migratory Bird

Famous quotes containing the words australia and/or bird:

    “I like Australia less and less. The hateful newness, the democratic conceit, every man a little pope of perfection.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “What bird so sings, yet so does wail?
    O, ‘tis the ravished nightingale!
    “Jug, jug, jug, jug, tereu,” she cries,
    And still her woes at midnight rise.
    Brave prick-song! who is’t now we hear?
    None but the lark so shrill and clear;”
    —John Lyly (1553–1606)
