The last time she had been to this grove of trees it had been in the middle of winter and it had looked much different when it wasn't covered in snow. It seemed like this portion of Boreas was incredibly effected by the passing of the seasons. The side of her that loved exploration through nature was especially interested in the changes the Nook went through so it continued to pull her back to see the progression. She left her bracers at home in her den since she certainly wasn't expecting to encounter any fights on this simple, peaceful adventure to a near by area of Boreas. As an additional bonus, it made the long walk a bit more comfortable. They were actually quite comfortable and easy to wear for the most part, but for an extended trip like this she might as well be as comfortable as possible.

Once she was in the thick of the trees she slowed her steps to look around curiously at the flowering, lovely branches that stretched overhead. They were fairly young trees, but they were large enough to provide a fair bit of shade. In some places under the largest of the trees there were still small patches of snow that hadn't been in the direct sunlight enough to fully melt them. For the most part though, any signs of the heavy snow storm she had gotten stuck in with Sirius was mostly gone. She hadn't really expected it to still be snowy, but it was still a surprise to see that it was just gone.

The soft hum of buzzing caught her attention and she slowed to a stop to listen for a moment. Her mint eyes scanned the trees until she finally found the source of it - a fairly large beehive that had formed in the hollow of one of the flowering trees. She watched it with her head tipped to the side curiously. The bees were all over the tree, flying off in various directions only to have more return to the hive coated in yellow pollen. It seemed like the flowering trees that filled this area were the perfect feeding spots for these bees and ended up being an endless supply of pollen for them.

She crept a bit closer so she could get a better look, following their movements and seeing how they interacted with one another. Without her realizing it, one of them flew a bit too close to her and the humming near her ear startled her. It made her jump and swat at her ear with her paw, hitting the bee out of the sky. That caught the rest of the hive's attention and she heard their activity start to get much louder and more frenzied. Her hackles bristled and she looked up at the hive she had been watching, her eyes widening. "Uh oh..." she muttered to herself right before a group of them started flying after her. She turned with a squeal and started running, darting between the trees as she desperately started trying to get away from the bees she had angered.
