Comment from Bill Schott
This 5-7-5, Raptor Takes Flight, has the right set up and finds the worst image of a hawk ever created representing a bird looking for a snack before hitting the hay.

Bill,
I think the image is of the raptor feeding his chicks in their high aerie (-;
Regardless, thanks for your review.

Ciao Marco!
I just read your entry on the contest page and I felt it was something you would write.
And bingo I was right ...
.. raptors like hawks hunt mainly at dawn or in the evening ..twilight
Only owl hunt at night
reconnaissance ..is a great word ...described to the T what hawks do .. they circle and observe their territory for prey , intruders..
Twilight melts into darkness .. I love the verb ...melts ... used here ..it's unusual and it appeals and also it links to the first part ..snowy mountains ..
This is a perfect 5-7-5 .. you have truly mastered this format.!

Thanks Tempeste for catching me (-; So pleased you liked my phraseology for this 5-7-5 post. Even with your compliments, methinks I am not yet a master of this format, but I do try (to improve every day).
