Falconry day! Falconry day!

Nov 02, 2011 20:20

[today on one of the more open areas there's a helpful set of pamphlets, clearly made for kids about the ~wonders of falconry~ perches for the birds, species info and all sorts of fun facts!

...now only if the birds themselves didn't look so annoyed.]

Do you know how to do this?

I got a pretty good idea. Few tips I picked up from th' animal trainers way back when. 'Course, they ain't really falcons so it don't matter too much if I ain't perfect.

So the talking bit isn't just...wildlife around here?

Nah, more like just somethin' that happens every now and then? I haven't experienced it for myself, but folks that break th' rules get turned inta animals all the time 'round here.

Oh right, I heard about that. Pomeranians resulting from the sex ban.

More or less. It's like some folks didn't get th' memo!

I guess if it's a punishment and not a preventative some people might think the bang is worth the buck.

Ahhh, I can see wantin' ta risk it anyway. But still, there're other things ta be occupied over.

[points at him demandingly] Are you saying you've discovered something interesting to do in camp?

Sometimes I go out into th' woods and punch bears in the face.

Well, only the ones that attack first. Gotta give 'em a fightin' chance, y'know? Good way ta start my morning workout.

Okay, fine, things to do in camp for people who aren't superheroes.

[laughs] I ain't nothin' of the sort. But okay, I'll bite. 'Bout every other week or so, some kinda event's goin' on--parties, dances, balls, but also weird gatherin's where you don't really know what everyone's doin' there and nobody can leave, but it's all fun anyway. 'Least, that's what I think. Point is, it's actually pretty difficult ta get bored in Camp... though that can be a good thing or a bad thing.
