Blackfoot Forest bird song

Heph wagged her tail as Atka laughed, she enjoyed the sound. While laughing was fun even if she had to do it alone it was more enjoyable when there was someone to share in the fun. She watched as the other wolf raised her own nose the air and was able to pick up a rabbit, lifting again and searching for that scent in particular Heph nodded her head "I can tell now." And as luck would have it they were downwind.

Grinning Heph replied, a little bit less loud than before but still confident and pleased now that her mind was shifting to being on the hunt. "More than." After that she kept her gaze on Atka. She had not been lying when she said she could admire the graceful quiet in how the other wolf moved, but she also made sure to take care with her own steps as Atka did and mirror her body language so that neither of them would give themselves away too soon.

While the lagamorph was not yet close enough to warrant a stalk she knew that too much disturbance or the sound of two larger creatures moving towards it would probably set it off. Besides she wanted to make a good impression on the other hunter who had picked out their quarry. She gave a smile of her own, but let a few teeth show, not in aggression, her body was still loose and her tail behind her not up high, but in reply to the smirk of the wolf on the hunt. Her blood thrummed. Both of them were predators and though they could converse lightheartedly with each other she knew that, at least for her, and she suspected perhaps for Atka as well, that did not meant that there was no thirst for blood or meat in her bones.
