On birds, rituals and mourning

Things are not going well for our birds. While new research suggests they are far more complex than we think and possess a form of consciousness, species diversity is going steeply downhill.

De staartpen van de vuurvogel is a lament and a pamphlet against that decline, but also an ode to the splendour of birds, from the humble skylark to the somptuous honey buzzard. For the world would look empty, silent and bleak without them.
