Blacktail Deer Plateau eats, shoots and leaves

Maybe @Blue Willow can channel some of her feisty energy somehow? :D

Osprey woke up in a feisty mood (when was she not feisty, though?) and immediately tried picking a fight with all three of her age mates. Although he was still unable to move much, an ill-tempered Peregrine broke up the fight with a harsh warning growl and ordered Junior to go sit in time-out across the clearing. Sulkily, the youngster did as she was told, kicking every leaf and rock on her way there.

Only after sitting there for several minutes did it finally dawn on her that Peregrine couldn't possibly chase her if she left. Shooting a fervent glance over her shoulder, the puppy plucked herself off the grass and began to skulk toward the trees. When she heard the Alpha male's arresting bark, her ears flattened and she slowed down, yet she continued slinking. He snarled now and she froze, then suddenly bolted...

...right into something simultaneously hard and soft. With a cry that was more surprise than pain, the puppy fell to the forest floor, growling and spitting like a hellcat.
