Watching with bird pride Working the cliff-side Looking for noon fare, Freezing in mid-air Hovering, sharp-eyed Swooping, he nose-dived Spreading a wide wing Sweeping, his claws cling Avoiding a sharp beak Emitting a high squeak Running, a small shrew Avoiding the next cue Missing , the bird soared Pulsating, his eyes bored Trailing the same line Waiting for next time. Predatory Kestral Doing his best.
