NOT A GOOD DAY
A martial eagle was seen on a tree which seemed to be a hiding spot for a group of banded mongoose who were foraging unaware of this large bird of prey. It came to time when the mongoose were crossing the elephant path and at a very high speed the big bird came out like a shot. The alpha male mongoose was a responsible old man. One alarm from him and everyone cleared the eagle's target and got under a nearest lying log which the bird nearly crushed himself on to. Hard times never kill.
