Beautiful Ducks

Gimme something to talk about

Strange weather seemed to plague even the Auster continent from what Pheonix was observing. He'd needed to get a lay of the land for his daughters sake and if he was going to achieve the goals he wanted then there was no choice. The bitter cold was not his enemy, snow born the fluffy young male felt warmth passing through him while the chill nipped at the edges of his fur. Long slender legs pushed him forward through the mossy undergrowth. Snow dotted the landscape, making the grass almost appear frozen. Reaching out of the barrier of bushes he watched a creek come into view. Much to his surprise the quacking sounds of ducks reached his outstretched ears.

The soft sounds of the animals in the creek filled him with joy starting from nosetip to tailtip. Warmth moved through his stomach while he stood on the edge of the creek. A small family of ducks sat in the flowing water - four adult ducks and it seemed two sets of ducklings. Why the creatures decided to have kin in such a harsh environment he didn't know. The ducklings were likely to freeze, but this was however how nature worked. While he stared at the ducks in content, the back of his mind wondered what would happen should he hunt one of the partners. What would the remaining do, the ducklings? Left? Raised by a single parents or the three. Pheonix was thinking to indepthly about it.
