Great Horned Owl (fledged)

Description

One golden eye cuts through the silence, already carrying the focus of a hunter not yet tested. No flight (but almost there). No kill. Not yet. Just instinct, sharpening in real time. Soon, the branch wont be enough. The safety of the nest will fall away. Hunger will demand action and those talons, still learning their strength, will have to deliver.
