About

A snow blizzard hit the warm landscape in late summer of September. The trees creaked in pain and anguish from the weight of the unexpected snow, and no one, not even the birds knew what was to come. Most froze overnight, some found huddled together in the dusk light.

Birds have the ability to roam the earth and fly in the skies. They deliver warnings of danger and sym- bolize freedom and peace, but spiritually they are considered messengers from the spiritual realms. Dead birds are departed souls, and more specifically it symbolizes the end of something and the start of something else.

A dead bird. A dead bird. A dead bird.
