Thermals rotated and the eagle circled upon their warm lift, feather tips fluttering as minute changes in the air were detected. Her eyes focused, and zoomed into the rock face below; a barely visible movement snapped her attention away from a vehicle paused on the track.
She screeched twice and continued to circle, lowering her altitude slightly and maintaining eye contact with the rodent below who had scattered at the sound of the hunter high above.
The vehicle reversed as she glided to her final approach. Silence now as her talons drew forward in readiness.

Thanks Dale; not sure where it came from!! I stared at the picture for ages and then felt myself looking down on the whole scene rather than walking along the path I think!!! 🌸
