Bored and restless, this 8-year-old boy’s summer took an unexpected turn when he found a flamingo in his backyard.
The majestic bird was a strange alien creature that rocked his young universe.
He cared for it with stolen scraps of his dinner plate and a makeshift home.
But he would soon learn that life’s surprises were never-ending.
In life, and in death, the magic never stopped.
