This is stuff made of angels.
At a memorial organised for the Orlando shooting victims, 49 birds appeared in the sky. Right overhead the vigil.
The vigil was held on Monday at the Dr. Phillips Performing Arts Center.
The photographer was pleasantly surprised when she later counted the number of birds and found that they were an exact 49 - as if symbolising each one of the dead in the Orlando shooting. Of course, minus the one bird that signified the shooter himself - Omar Mateen - who was responsible for the horrific act of terrorism.
As the names of all the victims were being read at the vigil, the photographer looked up to see the flock of birds flying.
She clicked a photo but it wasn't until later that she would count the number and be surprised to relate their significance to the victims.
"I then showed everyone around me and had them count. We were all stunned. Seeing the birds made me feel a sense of peace about the tragedy," the photographer said.
49 doves were released into the sky from a separate vigil that was organised in Lakeland, Florida. In the picture, however, they appear black.
Doves, as we know, symbolise peace. Need we say more?
