He said with a grin.

Tristan put little Dahlia on his knee so Oliver could get a good look at her. She had taken quiet a liking to him ever since he found her hurt in the barn. "Well, this little one, which...she is the smallest of the bunch...decided she was going to fight her big brother over the last fairy egg...and well, she didn't win." He frowned at her, and she sighed exasperatedly, folding her twiggy arms across her chest and rolling her beady black eyes. Tristan snorted at her expression. "Her brother basically booted her out of their makeshift tree in the barn and she landed oddly and hurt her leg. She is not happy about losing as you can see." He chuckled. Right back to the subject at hand. "Anyway, the best way to lure a Bowtruckle from their tree is to feed it with wood lice or fairy eggs. That is what their diet consists of. So, you should always, always, have those two things on you if you are hunting for wand wood. Bowtruckles may be small, but those fingers can gouge out your eye very easily." He said with a grim expression. He had been poked too many times.

Ah, yes that. "Well, other than study as much as possible, you could come and actually work with the animals in the barn every once in a while. Gaining experience with animals always helps, that way when you do your practical you know what you are doing because you have already done it." He said with a wink and a smile.

Oliver was happy he didn't offend Professor Wayland. Working with creatures would be new to him really. "Thank you, Professor." Most the pets they had at home weren't magical creatures. "So food is the way to their hearts." Not much different than some people, really.

The Slytherin studied Dahlia as she was moved and watched her as her story was told. "But she's a brave one." He smiled and thought of his sister, Alice. Spirited as this Bowtruckle seemed to be. "Wood Lice and Fairy Eggs.." He pulled out a small black notebook and wrote that down. "Fascinating." A smile offered in the direction of the Creatures Professor and his Bowtruckle.

"Briliant.. I'll be sure to devote some of my free time in the barn then." Because he intended on doing brilliantly on his OWLs. "I'd like to learn to work well with creatures. You see i'd like to make unique and amazing wands one day and i think that requires a clear understanding of all the aspects of wandmaking."
