    4-5: wide. the whole lake under ice, tiny house left, tamaracks right. two figures walking down, red jacket the only colour
    6-7: close on boots on the shore ice, his big, hers small. "Morfar says you can't hurry a lake."
    8-9: he opens the notebook. we see the page: years in a column. her finger on 1961
    10-11: the days pass, four panels across the spread, same view, the light changes, the ice greys. heron NOT here yet
    12-13: the heron arrives. big. he lands at the far edge where there's a line of dark water. Ilse points, Morfar doesn't look up, he already knows
    14-15: heron and grandfather standing the same way. this is the title image. neck in, shoulders up, hands behind the back / wings folded. she looks from one to the other
    16-17: night. the ice makes sounds. Ilse in bed, the lake outside the window booming. text is just the sounds
    18-19: morning, the ice is black and candled, pulling off the shore. "today?" "not today."
    20-21: IT GOES. wind, the sheet breaking, piling on the south shore. loudest spread. the heron lifts off, neck in an S
    22-23: quiet. open water. he writes the date. she writes one word next to it (her handwriting). the word is "loud"
    24-25: a year passes in one spread: dock goes in, summer, leaves, snow. the notebook on the sill in each season. red jacket on its hook by the door
    26-27: next spring. Ilse on the shore alone, in the red jacket, sleeves rolled four times. the notebook in her hands. Morfar is in the window of the house, small, a shape in a chair. or the window is just lit. ASK ODETTE which. (Liesl: lit window, no shape)

    30-31: the ice goes out, quieter this time. she writes the date and looks back at the house
    p32 author's note: the real notebook page, redrawn. one small heron

    endpapers: front = the lake iced, back = the lake open. the heron is in both. you have to find him in the front

    worries: 10-11 might be too clever. 24-25 is doing a LOT. the jacket carries the whole thing, the red has to be exactly right
