Avalon never missed a chance to attend flying lessons. Even though she had plenty of practice with Quidditch, she hated to pass up any opportunity to improve her skills. Although she had made the house team, she was only a first year, and she knew that she had a lot more to learn.

School broom in hand, she made her way onto the pitch. She pulled her flying gloves on to protect her extremities from the chill in the air as she observed MacKenzie playing catch with the Quaffle. She gave him a nod as she pulled her hair back and began to stretch. The cold bit at her ears as Avalon mounted the broom and took a few wide circles around the area. Perhaps she should have brought her earmuffs!
