"What are you in the mood for?" he asked, wandering a few feet away to sniff at the base of a tree. Nothing of interest, though a raccoon had been by a few days prior. They were in the area, then - but Day had never liked tangling with things that climbed trees. "I don't think I have time for a deer chase, but there are wild turkeys closer to the edge of the woods." Plus, it was in the direction he needed to be going.
