Late one winter night, a father and child go owling. The trees stand still as statues and the world is as silent as a dream. Whoo-whoo-whoo, they call to the mysterious nighttime bird.
But there is no answer.
Wordlessly the two companions walk along, for when you go owling, you don't need words. You don't need anything but hope. Sometimes there isn't an owl, but sometimes there is.
