Heidi A day on the ALM (7)

Heidi   A day on the ALM (7)

She gazed so long at the mountains that it seemed to her that each had a face and that these mountain-faces were familiar to her as old friends.

Suddenly Heidi heard a loud, harsh cry and when she looked up she saw, circling overhead, a huge bird, larger than she had ever seen before.

His wings were outspread and he flew in a wide circle, coming back again and again and uttering loud, piercing shrieks above Heidi's head.

" Peter ! Peter ! Wake up ! " cried Heidi.
" Look ! There is a big bird just above us ! "

Peter got up and watched the bird, too, as it rose higher and at last disappeared behind the grey rocks.

" where has he gone to ? " asked Heidi who had been watching the bird with keen interest.

" Home to his nest, " replied Peter.

" is his home up there ? Oh, how nice to live so high up ! How terribly he cries ! Let's climb up there and see where his nest is ! "
