He's a very interesting man.

I guess at that time there were still witch hunts and the church was still a great authority, but this is evidence that they did not treat these attempts as heretical beliefs. Incidentally, there is an ongoing TV programme in Japan called 'Bird Man Contest'. The link to the video of this year 2023 is attached.

I am sorry to say that it is only in Japanese, but the bird takes off from around the first minute of the video. Enjoy.

Love the story and photos, It is such a pleasure to focus on your written words and listening to you speak. Safe travels - air quality in New York (and surrounding areas) is 'unhealthy' - praying for the fires in Canada to end.

I love the connections you make with figures and contexts of history, Patti, and find ways artists’ thoughts and spirits resonate over time. Thank you.

Your ability to bring forth understanding, empathy and compassion is unmatched, Patti! Loved this account of Albrecht and on his birthday to boot, kismet!

Truly amazing the serendipity of it being Albrecht’s birthday that very day. It ties in so well with your celebration of dates as in your Book of Days. Nothing in life is chaotic.

I wonder if he had tried it before and succeeded?
