What a piece of work are birds! How noble in saturation, how infinite in hue! In spectral absorption and reflection how express and admirable ... the beauty of the air ... the paragon of visual stimuli!

History

It was detected and partially decrypted by software developer and APTO-certified fabulist Karl Jones on the afternoon of Thursday, 4 February 2021, in a post on Twitter.
