The lake looked especially flat today, the water was still frozen at the edges and the area was eerily silent. Sandstone sighed, his colors weren't exactly sticking out but didn't blend in either.His bright red 'tail' feathers rustled lightly as he crouched low and turned his gaze to the ice in front of him. After a moment he knelt even lower stretching out his neck to suck up some of the foul water from a hole recently made by his foot in the thin ice. It tasted as awful as it always did only somewhat improved by the freezing temperature that made his tongue numb.. He growled as the thought crossed his mind resentment showing in his posture as he stared across the lake his many eyes narrowed at the far bank. He sighed deeply again crouching down even further the cold ground below brushing his stomach before he and laid down the rest of the way; ignoring the uncomfortable ground. He was content, for now, to sit here and mull over ...nothing really. He let his old distaste for the adhay come creeping back to him for a little while, sitting there and staring unblinkingly at the far bank of the lake for a long time, but after awhile he blinked. "...no point." He reminded himself with a soft grunt narrowing his eyes even further before getting to his feet, now much colder than he had been, and turning to ease back into the Deep Woods. His footsteps were light as he passed through the trees, headed back up towards his home eyes not looking where he was headed, staring listlessly at his own feet as they trod over his well known path.
