In the Woods

In the woods the shadows fade as the sun falls away the darkness hides the trees inside the woods come alive. Hear the sounds the owls make as they hunt for their sake. Scattering feet running to hide little mice trying to fly the owls are hungry,its their time to eat and scare the shadows inside. Now the sun is opening up the darkness fades and the light shines the owls sleep and all is safe for the mice are scampering all around pleased to know they are safe and sound.

There is a lot of nocturnal activity taking place in any wooded area. You have described it well here. In your last line, just change "their" to either "they're" or "they are".
