Abstract

lux perpétua lúceat éis

Lilies, daffodils, and Oregon Grape blossoms wreath a Dark-eyed Junco in brightness after its collision with a porch window. I want to bring reverence to these ordinary encounters with death. Their stories illuminate the larger patterns of bird disappearance at a global turning point for ecological conservation.
