The first one - *shivers*
And the last one - makes me want to nap under that elm...
With all the rain we're getting I love the last one. Beautifuil!
poor field mouse - those birds of prey will always find it!
I like the peacefulness of the dappling leaves in the last one.
I was rooting for the little field mouse to find cover! All of these are really, really good.
wow, i love the immediacy of these, i felt like i was right there
I like the images each of these paints. With the first one, I can see the hawk stooping to take the field mouse. The other two paint more peaceful pictures, but are just as clear.
I love all these.
Being a sucker for happy endings, I'm hoping the mouse found safety in a nook of the elm. Loved your first one in particular.
oh no...poor little field mouse cowering under the shadow of doom! Great job!
i love the last one especially. i belong in a hammock.
Maybe if you wrote a fourth, the field mouse could be saved. But the shadow would be hungry. Hmmm.
Nice words, all along.
Lovely
beautifully stark images.
Great juxtaposition of imagery.
