The Hungry Squirrel

  The Hungry Squirrel

        Early one morning near the edge of the forest .A small squirrel was gathering nuts while a hawk was gliding high in the sky. The squirrel sensed something was wrong. He could hear a squawk in the distance. He lifted his tail and slowly raised his head.Danger! Out of the corner of  his eye he noticed the hawk was getting closer and closer.

He could almost tell the hawk was smiling.The squirrel planted his feet firmly on the ground. His fur stood on end.  As the hawk came closer the squirrel became more frightened. He turned and  ran, and ran.

The hawk was very large with a big yellow beak. He was so hungry he wasn’t giving up the chase.

Time went passed the hawk continued chasing the squirrel. Just then squirrel grew tired the hawk looked very happy. He slowed down as the squirrel speed off. The hawk only just saw him take off.  

The hawk finally caught up he swooped down as fast as anything and picked the squirrel up by his tail to fly away. The squirrel tries to escape. He wiggled and jiggled. The hawk finally let go. As the squirrel ran back to his home in the old oak tree he sat for a little bit while the hawk flew over the forest.

After the hawk had gone the squirrel went out to gather his nuts.
