Watching Hawks

The Carters were visiting Hawk Valley. “ My class had a field trip here, ” Harry said. “ We saw hawks soaring through the air. ”

At the visitors’center, the Carters learned about hawks. They saw lots of photos. “ I can’t wait to see a hawk! ” Emmy said. “ They look beautiful in flight. ”

The Carters hiked through the woods to a lookout spot. They scanned the valley below and the sky above.

“ I don’t see any hawks, ” Emmy said. “ Keep watching, ” Mom said.

Oliver pointed to the sky. “ Is that a hawk up there?” “ No, that’s an airplane, ” Dad said.

Emmy sighed. “ I still don’t see any hawks. ” But she kept watching.
