Warbles at from a far, avian head tilting this way and that.
He freezes up, staring in the direction of the shape with his neck outstretched, like a deer.
Whatever that is, it isn’t familiar and it-it’s LOOKING at him. Not quite person shaped, but not quite animal shaped.. right? At this distance it’s impossible for him to tell exactly what it is or even if it’s just his head fucking around with him, but in this new land there must be animals he’s unfamiliar with, and that call.. Some kind of large bird?
His own head tilts and he finds himself slinking towards the mystery thing, curious but more than anything hungry. Starving, even.
If it’s an animal-if it’s a bird? It’s his. He wants it.
