Robin, Worm, Crow, Vole, and Raccoon - Eagle Arrives

Robin, Worm, Crow, Vole, and Raccoon - Crow finds Grandfather Eagle

Crow looked up and to the north. There, high above him, Grandfather Eagle was diving straight on toward the river below.

* * * * * In the glen, the sun was just rising in the East.
