I heard a sound at the window of the cottage. When I looked, a cedar waxwing had hit the window and fallen to the deck. Its mate stood beside it. It was clear that the fallen bird was dead. I turned away for a moment and when I looked again, its mate had hopped over. It lay down beside its partner, their heads touching. It closed its eyes and passed over to Spirit with its mate. The sadness and beauty of the moment were such a privilege to witness. If anyone has ever doubted that animals feel emotion and love, this moment was absolute proof of both. Nature truly has much to teach us.
