Can you see the secret inside?

Spottednose paced across the edge of the meadow, the still damp grass from the rainfall soaking his paws. He flicked them at each step, but made no other indication of his distaste. It had been a good thing for the meadow- rainfall encouraged the grass to grow, and that in turn encouraged prey to return, which would make it easier to find prey in the coming moons.

Glancing sideways at Redscar, Spottednose paused and lifted his head higher, sniffing at the air. The scent of smoke and burned grass had faded, but the grass was still a bit thin in places. "Think there's any prey out there?" he asked, his ears flicked toward the wide expanse of grass. He couldn't see anything, but it didn't mean there wasn't anything there. They'd just be crouched down, letting the grass cover them from any land predators. Mice, in particular, ought to be plentiful.

"Maybe a short hunt to see what's here?" It shouldn't disturb the prey if they were conservative, and the Clan's hunters had been focusing their efforts elsewhere for the most part.
