Author: GreyValley (Body tense and alert.)
Subject: Coming out of the cave.

Stepping out of the shadows and into the morning light, ears erect and eyes alert. Carefully padding to an outcropping and looking over the edge, gazing in the scene, searching for any careless creatures that have not hidden. Twitching his ears, listening to the distant screech of a red hawk, following it with his eyes. His body poised and proud inthe morning light as he searches from his advantage point. Down below, seeing the crisp clear water of the stream, makes his way down carefully to the water. Leans down and laps the cool water, enjoying the coolness in his throat. Searching the brush and trees on the opposite side of the stream, turns and pads downstream. A rabbit exposes himself 30 yards from him, eating the tender grass, stops and stands quietly. Slowly and carefully steps toward the rabbit, carefull not to stir the leaves and twigs that scatter on the ground. At 10 yards, bolts toward the rabbit. Snaps at the fur, missing it when the rabbit realizes the danger it's in. Giving chase, closing in fast, making every move the rabbit makes as it turns and twists. Finally, within range, clamps on the rump of the rabbit, it squeals loudly. Pinning it down with my front paws, biting the neck and snaps it, putting the animal out of it's misery. Enjoying the fresh meat, the crisp air, and the quietness of the wood. Having breakfast, searches his surroundings and pads downstream once more.
