Fishing for Lunch

Wings spread wide // his focus is clear;

Eyes zeroed in on the salmon in the water;

Talons out // ready for the catch of the day.

Sailing toward the surface like a phantom jet…

Water breaks // the shadowy creature has no chance.

Wings flap // sharp talons close around the fish

Lunch is carried back to the eaglets
