Winter had left and the aging male was glad for it. He disliked the cold. The only good thing about snow was that it made tracking prey much easier, but other then that fact he disliked winter. With the spring came more motivation for him to get his butt in gear. The young alpha's gladly welcomed him into the pack and he would need to start moving on what he needed to do for the pack. Though first thing first was to get a new den made. He huffed as he looked at his current den, to crammed and falling apart. It was an old badger den that he merely made bigger for himself. It lasted him through the winter and was a good temporary, but now it was time to say goodbye to the old thing and move on. Plus it was way to close to the border and he would like to be closer to the others. Traveling inland the male left his den in search of a new spot. He always liked the willow trees so many he could find a nice one and make a den over the roots. The male traveled to several willow trees, looking them over and inspecting the ground they grew from, each one he was dissatisfied with. He grumbled as he continued to look and soon he found one, perched on a medium sized knoll. It was large with long leaves that hid what was under it. Not far from it was one of the small streams, easy access to water. He went around, inspecting it to be sure it wasn't claimed before he went to the base of the tree. He began his work digging at the softer ground and making his den deep into the roots of the tree. It would be a perfect spot for himself and maybe at his age he still would have time to find a mate and have a few kids, though he still felt he missed that chance completely. It took him and hour or two before he was done digging and off he went in search for bedding, looking for moss and going back to his old den to grab the two pelts he had used during the winter. This took him and hour more before he felt satisfied that he was done. After finishing he went to the stream to wash up, and to get a drink. Once that was finished he settled on the shore of the stream to relax before he went out to patrol. Talking & Thinking |
