It all started with a quarrel with his wife , as usual, because of being a trifle . They fought plates were flying strong buzzwords … I left the house without closing the door, got into his car and drove to a friend huntsman . He has long been invited to come sometime , so I decided to take advantage of his hospitality. Here are a few hours away in the car and I am his . Friend (Gregory or simply Grisha) greeted me warmly , drink tea and bread and made a bed of a sleeping bag and pillow. Utrom woke up and said that he had to make morning rounds territory (such as protecting the forest from poachers) and suggested we go together. Gave me a knife and we moved on , talking quietly . With us still send it (Grishina) Zhuzhik dog . Dog and then ran forward to sniff a bush or tree … Grisha suddenly raised his hand . I stopped. Listened.And I heard a faint thud and had very very far away, apparently.- Not far from the apiary Victor cuts . — Said the huntsman . There was a muffled sound. — Tumble down a skunk . Well, now do not have time to walk away — carry off .- Who? — I asked.- Someone who cuts trees in the gap for this area. Oh well , it is still not going in the wrong direction.Gregory showed me a lot of interesting places. A giant beaver dam on the river , a huge tree in a dense thicket . In the branches of the tree nests built themselves around a hundred families of birds, bird directly dormitory .And then away from us roar .- What is it? — I do not know — Huntsman listened in silence. — I do not know . Not a wolf, no one at all . I can not understand . Ladnenko , VOROTAN
