Daily Dose
From The Passenger Pigeon, by John James Audubon
THE AIR
"The air was literally filled with Pigeons; the light of noon-day was obscured as by an eclipse; the dung fell in spots, not unlike melting flakes of snow; the continued buzz of wings had a tendency to lull my senses to repose."
From page 7
