Owl Etheree

A Barn Owl sits up high, head twisting round. Rustling undergrowth, he swoops silently down. Shrill screech of terror and pain, the evil deed done, he returns home. Three fluffy chicks hungrily await, they feast, stocking up for the winter months. written 09/20/2015 Contest For the Love of October

I really loved the ending of this one,Shadow. how the chicks feast on the "evil deed" done by the parent! This one would have been higher but you put one extra syllable in line 7. Congrats in my contest.
