Author’s note:
 
“For reasons other than just fashion Scratch prefers it when Golden Bill wears a bell either on her tail (Bass Instincts) or around her neck (Scratch and Golden Bill). It makes it easier to keep track of the griffin; especially when she goes into stalking mode.
 
Here we see the age old play between the predator and its prey. With great care and skill griffin approaches the unsuspecting prey. The griffin’s eyes never stray from its target, step by step it moves closer and closer to its prize. The griffin tenses in preparation to pounce, then with lightning speed the griffin lunges forward…and pinches the pony on the butt. Griffins love the sound ponies make when you pinch them on the butt!”
