Coconut Grove consider the coconut

Shank and @Shiv had been traveling for quite some time, flying northward in as the earth thawed. Riding the current of the breeze, the birds were easily able to navigate through the sky. Despite not knowing just where they were going, the yearling kept her eyes to the coast and used it as a guide. 

The sun was just setting as Shank's beady eyes caught sight of an unusual sight on the beach and quickly she was distracted from their travels. Following her interests, the young bird dove towards the ground, gliding effortlessly as she held sight of the ball on the ground. From afar it was blurry, but as she descended the sphere became more defined. 

Landing lightly next to the object, Shank peered at the coconut with suspicion. She had placed herself far enough away from the hairy object to be able to observe it comfortably. If it did happen to come to life, as she suspected, she would be quick to abandon the mission. Despite her apparent distrust, Shank looked skyward. "SHIV!" She shrieked, calling to her companion in an unelegant crescendo. "WHAT THIS?" 

Subtleness was not Shank's strong suite.
