as she walked, she got deeper into the woods. the trees began to blot out the light a bit as she went, though she didn't mind. she peered up into the trees, searching for a sign of her brother. he tended to spend most of his time here, she assumed because it was less.. busy.

elias, in the form of a barn owl, swooped through the trees, unnoticed by others. he was listening carefully, for sings of smaller prey he could catch for the group. rabbits, turkeys, even large prairie chickens would feed some.
after some time he began to hear rustling, and realized he was coming upon a warren. he assumed the form of a larger owl, the great grey, as he perched up in an oak tree. looking down, he tried to spot a larger male that he could bring back, and quickly did. elias swooped down, feathers barely rustling in the wind. as he landed, claws sinking into what he thought was a male, he realized he had made a mistake.
what he had attempted to catch was merely a large doe, and as it started to squeal, it caught the attention of a few bucks nearby. he panicked only slightly, beating his wings to lift the creature as the other rabbits began to get closer; he assumed to defend their doe. he had been attacked by rabbits once before, and never let himself forget how aggressive the males get when attacked. escaping with his prey, he flew up to the tree he had been perched on earlier to rest.
