Francis’s love of nature is made evident by the legends that surround his interaction with animals. Once he found a cricket at the Portiuncula and asked it to sing its praises to God. Every day for a week, the cricket would sit on his finger and sing for him for an hour, until he gave it permission to leave. On another occasion, he walked into the middle of a flock of birds and told them to praise God. They began to open their wings and sing, which delighted Francis greatly. This theme of creation praising God is a powerful image, for it highlights the unity that exists among all God’s creatures.
