The Eagle's Last Flight
by Colby Mihulka


Despite his weakening wings, broken beak, and dull talons, Eagle stubbornly clings to his pride and independence, refusing to acknowledge his growing age and declining abilities. But when wise Dragonfly gently nudges him to confront his fears, Eagle begins to reflect on his life, his loved ones, and the legacy he will leave behind when he chooses to travel to the next world. Through their conversations, Eagle learns that embracing memories and love is far more important than clinging to the past. With newfound courage, he spreads his wings and takes flight toward the horizon, finding peace in the journey. This touching tale is a comforting companion for anyone struggling with the loss of a loved one. The Eagle’s Last Flight reminds us that even in our darkest moments, love endures, and cherished memories guide us forward.


Since childhood, Colby Mihulka has been captivated by the magical world of books and their ability to transport readers to alternate realms. This fascination led him to the path of creating his own imaginative narratives. When his father passed on in 2021, Colby’s life was profoundly impacted. His response to this loss was to write a story aimed at helping his mother cope with her grief. Colby’s father, who at one time was an Eagle Scout, is the inspiration for the character of the old Eagle in The Eagle’s Last Flight. Recognizing the universal nature of grief, Colby decided to share his story of an eagle who cherishes the memories of those he loves to offer comfort to those struggling with the loss of a loved one. Colby resides in Bradford, Ontario, with his mother and brother. He is a profound enjoyer of any game, be it virtual or table-top, and always prefers an added challenge so that it forces him to become better than he was. Currently, Colby is working on a multi-novel fantasy series that will include the touch of magic that first inspired him to begin writing.
