Redhawk Caldera home in the wild

so focused on his quarry on tracking and keeping close tabs on the herd, he does not realize that he has a shadow.

until she rounds the boulder, lingering at it's foot. soft surprise dawns across kivaluk's face. crane, he greets her in soft, lowered tone: not wanting to spook the peacefully grazing herd. kivaluk can't yet tell if the herd is aware they had eyes on them, but if they were, they hadn't perceived him or crane as a threat ( yet ).

he disembarks from the boulder and joins her at its foot. it conceals the herd from his line of sight, but for the moment he is confident they will not bolt.

if you wished to come along with me, you only needed to ask. though he is careful not to chide her curiosity, he also didn't want his kids to think they needed to sneak around, either.
