Dragoncrest Cliffs Hang Out

She'd seen it disappear into a burrow, but had only caught sight of the back end of it as it had waddled in. It was bigger than a mouse, but it had a longer tail than a rabbit. It wasn't dark and muscly like a badger, but rather squat and tawny- and had caught sight of her well before she'd seen it. The groundhog had wanted nothing to do with the new wolves who had come to claim the land it had already called home- and thus far, it had escaped becoming a meal by remaining vigilant and remaining close to its burrow. It would be soon time for it to hibernate- but it wanted to get some extra snacking in before it did. 

So she waited, huddled in a dark puddled against the ground not far from the creature's burrow, waiting for it to come back out again. The young girl had boundless patience- but it seemed like the groundhog knew better than to tempt fate, and had decided to take a nap to wait out her surveillance. Still- she would wait a little while longer, hoping it might poke its little nose out again so she could see what it was- and potentially catch it.
