Such an immediate effect makes Nel smile brightly, and she goes straight to work. She is far slower about making her sketch, working on bubbling in shapes for a number of birds in different poses with a couple meant to be together and others just floating in space to focus on appearance.

As she starts to fill details to her first pose to make it look like a bird rather than a jellybean with stick limbs, she takes notice of the few birds coming closer to her. The cats at home have assisted in her development of patience, allowing the birds to come closer rather than her reaching to meet them in a way that might scare then. Instead, she slips her fingers into the seed package and sprinkles a small number out only for them with her hand kept low. Then, she acts like she’s drawing again even as she observes them instead.
