Andrew,
Have you read Annie Dillard's essay, "Living Like Weasels?" It's in her book, Teaching a Stone to Talk. It's fabulous. Every time I read this essay I discover something new. An eagle pops in and out of the piece, and Dillard's encounter with a weasel is central. But of course, there's a whole lot more going on too! I think you might like it, if you haven't read it already.
