Osprey on the wing.

Pillows of white in blue.

Northern Migration calls.

 

Clutched talons,

scales spectrum reflecting.

Dinner, 

enroute to wintering grounds.

 

12-20-2013

Konkow,

Maidu,

Nisenan and

Miwok

their foot steps followed.

 

Upriver.

 

Stand and cast,

in the flow, sudden chill.

numb toes.

 

12-27-2013

Today Catching?

as certain as the sky?

Like Neutrinos?

My fly untouched.

 

Osprey darts.

Eagle swirls and dives steeply.

his trout,

a stolen meal.

 

On my glasses,

view blocked, this strange stick.

A Skwala, too early.

 

12-30-2013

Back again,

your treasure like nicotene. 

Today before dawn, 

Venus rising, 

the mornning star.

 

To the Narrows, 

following,

Black Phoebes' work the next glide.

Their periodic aerial sallies entice.

Always on the move.

From willows, 

they dance, 

they catch.

 

Following.

 

Soon,

their secret now shared?

more early stones,

an Uva phantom, 

todays code, unlocked?

 

I behold three,

unlike the eagle,

these set me free.

I still like your old basic interpretation of the haiku for we novices.  Must have been great weather up there.  We're off to New Zealand for 12 days, but no fly fishing, only some ocean fishing.  Mostly visiting family in different areas while we're there.
