    gorgeous abbey, and I would have sworn that 500-year-old tree was sculpted if you hadn't said it was real. Random thing, the depiction of the bird over its nest might have been a depiction of a pelican. In medieval times the pelican was thought to pierce its chest to feed its young from its blood and was used as a symbol of self-sacrifice for one's family and countrymen.
