An illustrated scene unfolds before us: pokey the pigeon is wearing a dark hoodie, a yellow vest underneath, a tie, and a blue lanyard that is blowing in the wind behind him as he cruises on a bicycle across the page from left to right. he is biking past a flamingo pink visitor center on florida bay that sits on a large parkinglot under an oak tree covered in spanish moss. a flamingo beach postal service truck with a surfboard on top sits in the parkinglot under the slow, calm, lazy florida sun. a blue sky has nothing but a distant dot, a white airplane flying off to some unknown land.
