【◈】He couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe it couldn't believe it couldn't believe it! Oh, it was just so incredible. Even now, as he slowly worked at bringing it back to camp, his heart still pounded with excitement.
Coalfoot had managed to find a pheasant. Not only that, but he had caught it. Far from easily, but he would be damned if he were to let it get away. The tom was somewhat battered from the scuffle, but thankfully had avoided the flailing talons. Wings, not so much. His legs were sore from the effort it took to bring it down. Now his jaw and neck were beginning to stiffen as he struggled to drag the large bird across the frozen moor. It wasn't fat by any means, but it was still huge!
By the time he made it to the familiar gorse tunnel, he was puffing for breath. Coalfoot paused at the entrance, finally letting it go to release his barely-contained giddiness. "Everyone! Look!" Stooping down to grab it again, he resumed dragging it backward into camp, proud to show off what had to be the greatest catch of his life.
