photo : Bustards on the Ottawa River preparing for migration

Floating on one’s certainties

one’s reassuring habits

But it’s time now

to fly against the wind

and tides we will lose feathers

we will stretch our necks 

We’ll learn how to tumble down

Landing in the dunes

  1. (not about poetry) I am a bit puzzled by the photo’s description: what kind of bustards are those birds? As far as I know, the « usual » bustards can’t swim and aren’t so fond of water; they prefer dry grassland.
