An imagined scene, sometime in the future, when people gather to give offerings to the very last white heron. The religious ritual communicates the depth of spiritual connection and servitude that – too late – they feel for the passing of bird life on the planet. But even with best intentions, the humans bring their destructive creativity to the heron: a platform on the riverbank, overly carved lamp stands and a huge stone archway. They destroy the heron’s habitat, in the very act of offering fealty and sustenance.
