Sun Mote Copse But when your load gets heavy, maybe call it a night

Wildfire pulled Elfie out of the lunch-plate and set him aside, but the boy was soon back on top, nosing through the contents greedily and getting in his mom's way. She named two or three brands of food that were on the menu today and Elfie replied to each offer with an affirmative "woof". He was not picky about, what he ate, and quite often his curiousity drove him to eat some inedible objects as well. Hence the occasional pieces of wood or tiny pebbles in the poop. 

In this case, however, he showed preference to a rabbit's ear, got hold of it and attempted to free it from the rest of the body and the pile, but failed. An inquiring look in his mother's direction, if she was - perhaps - inclined to help him out, and then he got back to the job again.
