Attracted by a swift silver flash of a fin as it momentarily disturbed the still water, she bent over the poolside railing and peered down. Several fish swam lazily just beneath the unruffled surface.
A flock of birds flew overhead.
Watching their reflected progress, for a breathless moment she saw the fish, with languid grace weave intricate patterns amongst the birds without ever impeding their direct and purposeful flight.
