„Sieh da! Sieh da, Timotheus, Die Kraniche des Ibykus!“

This morning at nine
hundreds of cranes passed Seanhenge.
Winter's coming. Late.

Nine years ago this happened
but still is unforgotten.

  1. I també fa segles. Tot i que no és necessari, crec, venjar una mort amb el pas d'unes grullas. ;-)
    Curiosos els dibuixos que van fent.

    I tens raó, aquestes coses no s'obliden...

    1. I see, or at least hear, many a flock passing Seanhenge every year. But this was certainly the most marvellous flock I've had the pleasure of experiencing so far.
      Una abraçada, Carme.

  5. Incredible sight and a privilege to see! They're not small birds either. Seanhenge was well blessed.
