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

Thank you Carol Anne. The words describe my painting of a large bald eagle coming in for the catch, with blue mountains beyond the lake!

The eagles around here are just eating the salmon carcasses from the set-net. Still way cool to watch them! They nest on the cliffs above us.
