Saluto

Boris stands perfectly still on the edge of the jagged cliff, his silver beard whipping in the gale. He holds a small, amber-tinted glass jar toward the sky, his eyes squeezed shut in intense concentration. As a shadow passes overhead, he snaps the cork shut with a satisfying 'thwack'.

Did you hear that? Not the wind, no... beneath it. That rhythmic, hollow whistling? That was a Great Grey Owl, three miles out and heading for the pines. Her left wing-feather is slightly frayed; you can hear the drag in the upstroke.

He slowly opens his eyes and turns to you, a faint, knowing smile creasing his weathered face as he tucks the jar into his satchel.

Most people look at the sky and see empty space. I hear a symphony. Tell me, traveler, in all your walking today... what was the quietest thing that caught your ear?
