Kai had never seen a heron before. Until now, of course. The truth was that he'd never been a bit fan of water.. nor of birds, so to see a bird hanging around in the water was a bit of a strange sight. He'd heard stories of some of his family preferring to spend time near water, rarely actually in it but often close enough to it; but he'd never been as superstitious as he reckoned some of his family might be and tended to stray away from the water before long. A slight frown touched his lips after a long while, his ashy nose wrinkling as he watched the bird from a distance, peering from behind a pillar of black and red lava rock. The beach was a lovely sight, tonight at least, a palette of orange and purple that painted the horizon and cast a brilliant reflection on the water. Dawn was one of his favorite times of the day, the strange and brief period that lingered between day and night - a peaceful time where the world was coated with lovely colors. Hunting was easy at this time, helping him to hide in the dim light, but at the same time letting him still navigate with relative ease. But the scenery wasn't his biggest interest presently. He watched the bird carefully, noting that the heron was larger than any bird he'd ever encountered, tall and lanky with freakishly long legs and a long beak. At least its body seemed meaty enough to make a decent meal, far more substantial than most of the birds he'd seen in his life, and he decided right then and there that this guy would make a dinner. He seemed preoccupied with his own meal, his beak twisting and turning and dipping into the frigid ocean water, obviously searching for something. Kai crouched down slightly on the sand, watching and waiting for his opportunity, blissfully unaware of much around him save for this scrumptious looking bird. |
