Rhibear ~ Madam Solo ~ Dark Brooding Girl ~ Accio Jedi ~ Gryffinclaw ~ Just a doll Desiree gave a brief nod at Professor Paton’s reply to her. While her wording may not have reflected it, she would never underestimate a mooncalf or any other creature for that matter. She knew how it felt to be underestimated, and it was no fun!
Locating mooncalves by themselves? That sounded interesting! At the professor’s okay, she got up and slowly wandered about the area, her bright blue eyes intently scanning her surroundings as she went. As she moved, she considered the next question. Remembering something her dad once said, her initial thoughts turned to food, No surprises that that was the first thing mentioned! She thought of other shy creatures and people she’d met, and an idea occurred to her.
Desiree raised her hand and said, “I’d move slowly and speak quietly, so as not to scare it with sudden noise or movement. That and be patient with them. Trust that they’ll come out on their own terms and not try to rush it.”
