Exceptional A flash fiction story... The Encounter by Diana L Crawford 80 Word Flash Fiction contest entry

The majestic bird soaring over the seashore inspires me. I become the eagle. Aloft in the briny atmosphere over the ocean. I soar towards billowy clouds, then scour the water’s surface. I rest upon the bough of a coastal pine tree. A male sits next to me – says he’s a family man whose wife is nestled down with eaglets. Then to my great surprise, he turns and says, “I’m free until dawn. Would you like to go for a fly?”   Recognized Author Notes picture borrowed from the internet - no copyright infringement intended Fortunately, a male eagle would not go birding around with another female once mated! LoL!
