In any case, it’s a dramatic image that President Ivins creates here. From my own experience, I can imagine that a beautiful birdsong would provide welcome comfort to someone who is all alone in the outdoors and especially during the eery hours of the night.

Thanks for sharing.

(Do we even have mockingbirds in Utah?)

(If not, it seems to me that Ivins’ choice of birds here is an odd one.)
