Otatso Wetlands the big dipper

@Sumayl

Star had run earlier this morning and, finding herself bored, continued her run towards this swampy area. She had slowed to a walk- well, a wade actually. The ground was wet and her feet sunk into squishy mud. She was careful to try to keep it off of her- it would surely ruin her perfect flawless white fur. She could see an owl that was hunting its own prey, a mouse. If she came at just the right time, she might be able to catch the owl as it caught the mouse. She crept closer, hiding herself from the owl behind muddy reeds. She could see it tense as it prepared to swoop. As it did, it caught the mouse in its talons, and Star had just leapt, biting the owl's neck quickly. Now she held in her jaws an owl that held in its claws a mouse. It was a double catch, a little sprout of good luck for her. She found the most dry dirt she could find, and dug. She buried her prey and layed two crossed sticks there in an x to mark the spot for when she headed back. She continued to walk in the mud that sank under her paws.
