Eagle Story by Jonathan

:

One day there were two people that went out to look for something to hunt. They saw a Bald eagle flying above them. The eagle kept flying close to them, and they knew there was probably a nest nearby. They kept on walking and finally they saw a big eagle nest. It was on the ground on top of a tall pile of sticks. They were so amazed they wanted to tell their friends.

So they went home really fast and told all their relatives about it. Some of them even came back with them to visit the nest. Some kids went ahead to check the nest and they found an eagle on it. The eagle flew way up into the air and then all of a sudden it swooped downreally fast and flew up right in front of them. This scared them so much they ran home as fast as they could.

After a while some other people checked the nest, but the eagles did nothing. So they went home and never came back to visit the nest again.
