Striped Hyena Crossing Snow Near Stockholm

by Esmeralda Sargent

A low, gray twilight settles over the frozen crust of snow near Gamla Stan. The silhouette of a striped hyena moves left across the foreground, its distinct coat pattern visible only as dark bands against the pale ground. Distant birds burst upward from the reed bed, their wings blurring against the sky. The horizon glows with the warm, amber haze of city lights reflecting off low-hanging clouds. Early spring thaw leaves patches of dark, wet earth exposed where the snow has receded. The reeds stand stiff and brown along the water's edge. The animal's head is raised, ears forward, creating a sharp line against the soft, diffuse light of the evening sky. One shadow stretches long across the icy surface.
