Winterhymns had no difficulty in hunting birds but hardly anyone ever saw him doing such, he supposed with his given rank it would be a lot harder to do things privately or rather he need to be more public to his people. It was still an odd situation and worry gnawed at his belly, the sound of screeching seagulls and laughter had made his ears twitch during his walk along the beach, a subtle frown on his maw as he stood there in silence. Winnie would approach the two teens with a soft smile slowly forming itself onto his maw as he greeted the both of them "Hello there," He glanced to the side realizing the flock of seagulls that were there only to turn back to the two boys "Bird catching? It can be rather difficult but once you get the hand of it, it's rather impressive."
Winnie was a humble man but there was times where he liked to show off every now and then as a treat. A soft chuckle left him at that thought only for his eyes to fixate themselves onto the grouped avians once more only to say with a light nod "Are you going to attempt it again, Drayden?" His gaze was gentle when he glanced back over to the snow leopard, a warm smile still present on his maw. He flicked his tail motioning for the boy to come closer, the legate nodded slowly "Just watch what I do but you'll be the one to catch one. Sound good? I'm sure you'll catch the most plump one from the batch." Encouragement and teaching, those were key when someone was trying something new.
If Drayden had come over, Win would lower his body into a hunters crouch with tail not touching the ground as he began to take careful steps forward. He paused in his steps with his ears twitching slightly and the legate took more cautious pawsteps making sure to hide from the birds sight and keeping away from where they could possibly catch his sent. He paused glancing over at the snow leopard as he would nod "Now, you're going to stalk forward and once you're close enough. That's when you pounce forward." Winnie said with a smile still present on his maw, the legate only wanted what was best for his people. That's what a king did.
