Birds of a feather

It took just one sharp whistle for Balto to come to him. Kavik wasn’t so easily persuaded, however. The husky was still young and instead of coming to his master, he continued playing in the water of the Crystal Stream. A bird flew over the blue surface. It quickly realised its mistake when the dog’s maw closed on its tail. The scene ended with a panicked bird flapping its wings as fast as it could and a disappointed husky trying to get the tail feathers out of his mouth. Erek couldn’t help but smile at the sight. “Kavik,” he called again and this time the animal looked up, a small fluffy feather still between his teeth, and came towards him.
