A beautiful black and white bird
Of which I had not previously heard
Something like a magpie
To the untrained eye
Some might find it a bit absurd
The mudlark looks like a magpie but is a member of the Monarchidae
family while the magpie is a member of the Corvidae family.

Kind thanks to Sammi Cox for giving me a prompt with the perfect word count to be able to stick a fork in this year's NaNoHellMo project. That sucker is officially done! I will still complete the last two days of diary and poems, but there is no longer any pressure to make a specific word count. Halleluiah!
