In the didactic text, Davidson shares,
"I was at the Yakoun River with Nanii Florence and an eagle flew overhead and she said, 'There goes your uncle.' Eagle appears sometimes at the right moment. I once sat in the dentist chair having a long and painful procedure and when it was done and the chair tipped upright I saw an eagle playing with a seagull outside the window. When we raised the two Eagle poles commissioned by the RCMP on the beach in White Rock, dozens of eagles swept and soared around the poles during the ceremony. Eagles were everywhere."
