The Nest

by Violet Sorzano

Randall squinted up through the trees, trying to gauge the time, but gave up quickly. He should have paid attention when his father taught the family to read the position of the sun. He should have paid attention, too, before sneaking off this morning on his first solo hike, forgetting the whistle his mother stressed he always bring.

He pictured his parents now at their camp beneath the tree with the eagle’s nest, wondering where he was. Randall was wondering the same thing. Lost and out of food, he feared he had but a few hours before darkness closed in, trapping him in the bitter cold with the creatures of the night.

He closed his eyes to fight back tears, when he heard it in the distance. Water! His father’s words came flowing into his mind; one tip he actually remembered. “If you’re ever lost, find a river and follow it.”

In a flash, he was on his feet, scaling fallen trees, tearing through brush, frantically following the sound. The sky grew darker, but the noise grew louder, and Randall, tired and scared, forged ahead until he found it. He reached the river bank and was mulling his next move when a sudden splash caught his eye.

A majestic eagle rose from the water, soaring skyward with a freshly caught fish in its talons. Could it be the same eagle nested above his camp? It glided triumphantly into a high nest a short distance away, eager to greet its family. Randall smiled, equally triumphant, eager to do the same as he followed the eagle’s flight.

In the distance, he saw his mother, his whistle clutched in her hand.

Answer:

Violet Sorzano , author of The Nest, uses the theme of obedience in this story. Overall, the theme of obedience rings clear as you feel Randall's regret for not paying attention to the life lessons his parents taught him. The lack of obedience puts him into this fearful situation. The setting of the forest or woods, where the family has not set up camp but, rather, where Randall has wandered off aimlessly is scarey. I think Randall is the antagonist and the parents are the protagonists. They taught Randall certain skills for his own safety and survival but Randall did not listen. He did not value their advice. The conflict in the story occurs within Randall himself. Just as he feels all hope is lost, an Eagle appears and sparks a memory in Randall's head. Now he needs the memory and finds his way back to his parents.

The agreement pledged to significantly increase money to help poor countries cope with the effects of climate change and make the switch to clean energy.
There's also the prospect of a trillion dollar a year fund from 2025 - after a previous pledge for richer countries to provide $100bn (£72bn) a year by 2020 was missed.
While some observers say the COP26 agreement represented the "start of a breakthrough", some African and Latin American countries felt not enough progress was made.

A perfect day, Ginny thought to herself as she
gazed at the small island ahead, noting the thin line
on the horizon formed by the mainland.
"Ninety minutes before we return to the mainland,"
Captain Bill reminded the eager snorkelers. Ginny
set her dive watch, Plenty of time to explore, and
lickety-split, she jumped into the sea.

Ginny distanced herself from the boat, Far too
crowded, how can anyone see anything? Too much
splashing, you'll frighten the fish! The congestion of
snorkelers was soon behind her, and she felt
transported to an underwater world all her own,
transfixed by the schools of tiny rainbow fish darting
before her, astonished by the occasional turtle
cruising along the white sands below. Do slow
down, come closer to the surface. Ginny willed the
fish with her mind. The kelp waved gently, the bright.
