A few weeks ago, while hiking on BaekYang mountain (백양산), I encountered a small eagle.
I was on the crest of the mountain, having hiked to its northernmost end from the south side. As I was getting ready to descend back to the city, she landed on the pile of rocks in front of me.
She examined me for a while. Then, having decided that I was no threat, stared out over the city towards the ocean. Her arrival made me smile, though I noticed that she seemed to have tears on her face.
Having ascertained that all was well in her city, she flew off, heading to a lower part of the mountain. And I continued on my way home.
