Ornithology (from Greek: ὄρνις, ὄρνιθος, ornis, ornithos, "bird"; and λόγος, logos, "rationale" or "explanation") is a branch of zoology that concerns the study of birds.
D part of Ourfish wanted to showcase this fabulously feathery creation from Empyreal Dreams which is up for grabs for the POE hunt. (mentioned in The Discoveryfish 17/12/2011) Glam aside, this place is well worth visiting on its own -
To quote :
Empyreal Dreams is an ongoing collaborative art project between two Second Life residents - Ariel Wingtips and Remington Aries. It’s aim, to visualize famous poems and literature using Second Life as a canvas. When complete our anthology will contain 12 works. Despite living on opposite sides of the globe, Second Life has given us the power to quickly work together in real time to turn our dreams into virtual realities
Currently they have five of their collaborative efforts up to view and they are :
- The Owl and The Pussy-Cat by Edward Lear
- The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe
- Les Miserables by Victor Hugo
- The Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
- The Bluebell by Emily Brontë
And so borrowing a leaf from their book - Ourfish presents Ornithology I,II, III, visually interpreting "Bird Song" by Florence & The Machine in Virtual Haute Couture
Songwriters: Devente Hynes, Florence Welch

| Ornithology I Well, I didn't tell anyone but a bird flew by Saw what I'd done He set up a nest outside And he sang about what I'd become He sang so loud, sang so clear I was afraid all the neighbors would hear So I invited him in just to reason with him I promised I wouldn't do it again |
 |
| Ornithology II But he sang louder and louder inside the house And now I couldn't get him out So I trapped him under a cardboard box And stood on it to make him stop I picked up the bird and above the din I said "That's the last song you'll ever sing" Held him down, broke his neck Taught him a lesson he wouldn't forget But in my dreams began to creep That old familiar tweet, tweet, tweet |
 |
| Ornithology III I opened my mouth to scream and shout I waved my arms and flapped about But I couldn't scream and I couldn't shout Couldn't scream and I couldn't shout I opened my mouth to scream and shout I waved my arms and flapped about But I couldn't scream I couldn't shout The song was coming from my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth From my mouth
