Beach Day

Three days of heat led us to the beach
Yesterday
Warm sand and the view of water to the horizon
A circle of seagulls sitting in the water
Where the fishing boats dumped the catch
They could not keep
And an eagle circling overhead in the distance
Being watched by a stranger on the pier
Led to a chase through the countryside
As Andrew looked for the eagle's nest
He had glimpsed through binoculars
