A bird in flightSurely no child, and few adults, have ever watched a bird in flight without envy.
Isaac Asimov Quotes and wishes: «Bird Day»
A bird is an instrument working according to mathematical lawA bird is an instrument working according to mathematical law, which instrument it is within the capacity of man to reproduce with all its movements, but not with a corresponding degree of strength, though it is deficient only in the power of maintaining equilibrium. We may therefore say that such an instrument constructed by man is lacking in nothing except the life of the bird, and this life must needs be supplied from that of man.
Leonardo da Vinci Quotes and wishes: «Bird Day»
A bird maintains itself in the air by imperceptible balancingA bird maintains itself in the air by imperceptible balancing, when near to the mountains or lofty ocean crags; it does this by means of the curves of the winds which as they strike against these projections, being forced to preserve their first impetus bend their straight course towards the sky with divers revolutions, at the beginning of which the birds come to a stop with their wings open, receiving underneath themselves the continual buffetings of the reflex courses of the winds.
Leonardo da Vinci Quotes and wishes: «Bird Day»
A natural symphonyWhenever I heard the song of a bird and the answering call of its mate, I could visualize the notes in scale, all built up within my consciousness as a natural symphony.
William Christopher Handy Quotes and wishes: «Bird Day»

Robert Lynd Quotes and wishes: «Bird Day»
Part of its presence in the worldFor a bird, especially for the more musically inventive, song is the defining characteristic, the primary way by which it knows itself and is known by others. To lose its species song is to lose not just its identity but some part of its presence in the world.
