17. Jian’s Wing

By Michael Bennett

Location: 278 SB Gratiot

 

The Jian Bird is a Chinese Mythological bird that is born with one eye and one wing. The Jian birds according to the myth are said to be created as pairs and it is believed that they must find their other half to reach their full potential or to fly. The Jian bird also symbolizes marriage. In Japan they are known as Hiyoku no Tori.

Michael lives and works in Wadsworth, Illinois.
