It's World Swift Day.

"Sleepers over oceans in the mill of the world's breathing.

The grace to say they live in another firmament.

A way to say the miracle will not occur,

And watch the miracle."

Things I didnt realise fully, thats once fledged, swifts never rest from flight for near 3 years full. Sleeping on the wing until they make their first nest.
Imagine this, to find your one resting spot destroyed because of human greed. We need to stop thinking the world is ours. This world is here because of all the life living here. We need to demand better of local developers.

@Silversnapples I have this painting on a mug 😄
@sharongascoigne oh I love that! Little synchronicities that make life fun. 🥰
