The Seagull of Remembrance


February 23, 2013

It should be a dove, of course, a dove of remembrance perched here on the Fallen Firefighters Memorial in Pioneer Square.  But there were no doves in the vicinity, and I felt there was a lovely symmetry between the bird and the monument on which he stood.  So, the seagull of remembrance it is, and in Seattle, city by the sea, that seems entirely appropriate.
