Jory hurried to the Owlery. He blinked when he entered and stared around. He had forgotten how many owls were there. Student and school owls. Just as he was there he scanned the Owlery looking for his eagle owl, Tobias.He didn't need Tobias's feathers as there were a lot on the ground. But Tobias found him first. He fluttered down and perched next to the bag of open Owl treats.

"Hallo, Tobias,'' Jory said, stroking the owl. "I haven't have anything for you to deliver today.'' It had been a while since he wrote home. He made a mental note to send a letter home soon. He bent and grabbed two feathers. Eagle Owl by the looks of it.

Before leaving, Jory grabbed one of the treats and gave it to Tobias. "I'll be back soon!'' he called. Tobias gave a hoot.
