Rudy gave a shrug and nod at Fern’s silent question of them hunting for the stoat.  Why not?  Fern needed hunting practice and a rabbit was more than enough for the little guy. The conversation played on and eventually, the stoat gave up.  Good thing.  Rudy knew Reddy was mot likely to bite the stoat than give up the kill.

Reddy gave a lesson angry squawk at the stoat before flying off, somehow in the flap of his wings you could sense irritation that the small creature had tried to claim Reddy’s kill.

“Well,” Rudy turned about and started a slow walk, though he paused his stride a moment to make sure Fern was coming with her passenger.  The way I see it, this is a hunt for all three of us.  We help you get the food but you get to do your part also,” a quirked brow to Puff.  “After all, you only partly helped on that rabbit right?  So we partially help you now.”  Besides, if it was hard for the stoat to hunt then it needed practice.  If it was staying with Fern it might as well learn.

Rudy would take the two a short ways farther in, scenting plenty of rabbits but finally spotting one.  “There we go,” his voice lower now. His head turned to the two of them.  “You,” he pointed to the stoat, “go far around,” Rudy nodded to the brush, “Hide in there, get to the other side of the rabbit and wait.  When Fern nods you will scare the rabbit.”

That was Puff’s directions then he looked to Fern, “You are going to wait about here until he’s in position.  Rudy nodded to one side somewhere to the left and in between them.  I’m going to be on the side between you too.  If the rabbit comes near me I’ll make it run back to one of you.  I’ll herd it if necessary but you two work on teamwork and training.”  If they needed Rudy could change the plan and be more active in the hunt but a short training session made sense to him.
