Answer:

He becomes more caring

Step-by-step explanation:

In “Night Calls” by Lisa Fugard the heron does change Marlene’s father's life. The moment the heron is found by her father, they start to share an especial connection and the father finds hope in taking care of it. Marlene is a bit surprised at her father’s attitude, like treating it as a baby. The bird symbolizes how ephemeral life is and that people have to move on from the loss.
