We DO see what we WANT to see, don't we? That's the idea I got from this lovely play from DC Cathro. A widow still struggling with not only the loss of her husband, but her son's sexuality is trying to make sense of her world in the only way she knows how, by attributing a random chance occurrence with a rare bird as a sign from Heaven. Her son bursts that bubble but then goes on to provide comfort to her in a way that, in a way, soothes her worries and strengthens their bond. Positively uplifting.
