‘Do you feel like some food? You look like you need some energy. I’ve brought some of Kiwi’s kitten snacks for you, they’re just up here, under the roof.’
‘Good, tasty, bird food. I will eat! Take also to Telara on nest.’
‘I’ve got to catch up with the others now. Keep an eye on me, Mobo, I might need to talk to you. If I walk right away from the others, come and see me. If you need to talk to me, just make your whipcrack noise, then I’ll get away from them somehow,’ she instructed as Mobo pecked cat biscuits from the lunchbox. He somehow crammed about six of them in his tiny beak, swooped off the rafter and flew off towards Rocky Knoll.
She quickly enticed Magic into a small yard so that the other horses couldn’t steal her feed then hurried up the paddock after the others.
Luckily they had headed straight for the bush at the
base of the mountain, not stopping to explore Rocky Knoll.
If they discovered Telara on her nest it would be a disaster, because it would be bound to make Mobo angry and
reckless.
She followed the voices, which she could hear coming from higher up the creek. She could hear
Athol’s loud voice booming. He’s fun but a bit crazy - almost scary, she thought. Paddy
is much quieter, still crazy, but he
just grins and gets on
with things.
