Happy May Day! I always think of the naughty rhyme about the First of May this time of year. Do you know it? :)
Speaking of naughty, yesterday I was chatting with John Gray and he happened to mention Marco. Since everyone loves a good Marco story, I thought I'd share a couple of snippets of our ensuing conversation.

Oh Marco, you horny little guy!
I had no idea Marco was a horny bird.
I knew that bird was a slut! Us birds of a feather stick together!!!!! And you KNOW I love the first of May! Happy May!!!!
People unfamiliar with birds tend to be horrified at their frankness!
Why does that nor surprise me?
First of May, first of May/Outdoor.....
Yes. I know the rhyme!
Oh, Marco. You horny bird.
Ha! We had a hand-reared Fischer’s lovebird that loved to hump, and feed, his little plastic bird on wheels. He would hump for a while and then regurgitate on its back. Our friends’ kids always seemed to be around, too.
Oh, don't even get me started on the regurgitating! So gross!
I would never have guessed that birds do that! Never thought of that before, Jennifer!
why does JDV come to mind- and his sofa love? Similar?
My old friend Jock (RIP) used to repeat that little rhyme every May 1st. One year he was in his local restaurant and he told it to some elderly female English tourists; one nearly fainted.
Oh dear. I had no clue~
I don‘t know the rhyme you are alluding to, but I am not surprised at hormones making themselves felt (and seen and heard) this time of year, in all sorts of animals, humans included 🤣
OMG. That's hilarious. I didn't know this was common bird behavior. Do they go into heat like dogs and cats? Marco, take a cold shower! LOL
My guess it is the suggestive song from "Camelot" - or the more blunt song by Jonathon Coulton?
I‘m afraid I have never heard of either!
The rhyme that you were thinking of is unfamiliar to the vast majority of Britons. Instead we tend to say:
First of May, First of May
Outdoor picnicking starts today.
Oh, Marco, you lovely, horny bird. If your mom has company, make sure you go out of your way to embarrass her.
Love,
Janie
