Side? I am on nobody's side, because nobody is on my side, little orc.

Birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you.

"In the backwoods of nature's soul I left my wild true heart."

You must see with eyes unclouded by hate. See the good in that which is evil, and the evil in that which is good. Pledge yourself to neither side, but vow instead to preserve the balance that exists between the two.

Hayao Miyazaki

Love, because these creatures are simply magnificent.

So many thoughts.

Inseparably connected with their migration in autumn is that winter is coming, as well as their return in spring is carrying the promise of summer.

The Wheel of time.

Endings and new beginnings. 

Life.

How do you feel about?

No spring nor summer beauty hath such grace as I have seen in one autumnal face.

What we are doing to the forests of the world is but a mirror reflection of what we are doing to ourselves and to one another.
