The sun had gone down and the moon has come up. Eamon sat quietly and stared into the cup. The aroma of Irish whiskey filled his nose. Tempting, but it hasn't been his drink of choice for years. A warm hand caressed his face and shook him out of his momentary daze.
"Ladies, forgive me. I had business on my mind. Let's go"
Eamon was sitting in a limo with three beautiful young women and one sharp dressed man. The group were celebrating in a rented limosine until their driver stopped the vehicle. Eamon opened the limo door and stepped out. He held the door open for the ladies and watched the surprise on their faces.
"Welcome ladies to Gilcrease Nature Sanctuary"
Normally, the Gilcrease Sanctuary would be closed for night. But some nights, the Gilcrease stays open for night time visits. Eamon saw children walking hand in hand with their parents, loving couples discussing what exhibit to visit first, and staff members greeted patrons with a exhausted smiles. Eamon's party looked dumbfounded, but enthusiastic. Manny, the sharp dressed man, looked irritated and kept his hands in his suit pockets. Eamon stood amongst the three women and led inside. Eamon paid for their tickets and handed a pass to each one. He stood amongst them again and wondered where to go.
"Do you ladies like birds?"
Two gave him vapid smiles, but one jumped in excitement. Eamon smiled, but more convincingly then his ladies.
"Ladies, the kings of the sky await".
Eamon and his party followed the directions plastered on the walls. It wasn't long before they were in the Nocturnal Bird section. His ladies were amazed at their first sight of Great Horned Owls. He didn't expect them to leave his side and get a closer look. His ladies joined the masses of families and couples, captivated by the Great Horned Owls. Eamon stood at the edge of the group, keeping an eye on his ladies. Manny stood further back, keeping an eye on Eamon.
