Three years ago, I added this bird character to my comics as a way to cope with my pandemic anxiety. Now, our avian friends find themselves in a similar situation. But with a much higher toll. It got me thinking back to those early, uncertain days of COVID. This bird helped me make it through. I figured I should return the favor.
