Swifts
“When I got the word my father was dying, I was traveling and away from home. I immediately got a flight to be with him. The book I had with me, serendipitously, was about bird migration.
I read to him all through the night about birds migrating. Birds flying. He always wondered, “How do they know how to come home?”
A meditation about her father’s final days, and lifelong interest in the migration of birds, photographer Barbara Bosworth and designer Emily Sheffer present Swifts. A sea of grey cloudy skies opens as each page turns, revealing a hidden, clear blue sky where swifts fly freely.
