Blows the wind to-day, and the sun and the rain are flying,
Blows the wind on the moors to-day and now,
Where about the graves of the martyrs the whaups are crying,
My heart remembers how!—Robert Louis Stevenson, “To S. R. Crockett (In Reply to a Dedication)”

Yesterday, I saw a cousin of yours,
a whimbrel,
that, when close to, looks like yourself
seen at a distance…—Norman MacCaig, “Curlew”

You see that I will have to rise
And turn round and get back where
My running age will slow for a moment
To let me on. It is a colder
Stretch of water than I remember.The curlew’s cry travelling still
Kills me fairly…—WS Graham, “Loch Thom”
Today, 21 April, is World Curlew Day
