Help me make it better

Thanks for your response to my post.

He couldn't get back his bag of gold because an eagle took it up and flew high in the air while he was taking a bath in the river. The eagle was out of sight before he could do anything.

I did my best but would you please help me make it more ordered? I feel that this can be written in a better way.

Trying to preserve most of what you have in your version, I come up with this:

While he was bathing in the river, an eagle took his bag of gold and flew off with it before he could do anything to get it back.
