Blacktail Deer Plateau Black is the soul

There was noise and a loud yelp from the river that startled both the bird and Sunny, the bird moving off toward the borders and over them. Sunny cursed and gave chase, spotting the bird at the edge of the frozen river. The rivers edge was pretty much the edge of their territory and as he spotted the bird he leaped and landed on it, pinning it between his forelegs and breaking it's neck with a sharp jerk of his jaws. 

Once done he lifted his head and peered out curiously at the female, ears flicking.
