Living in a household where available food sources are hotly contested (i.e., inexplicably, your large featherless housemate occasionally seems to want to share the dishes she prepares for you) developing strong foraging skills is key to survival.
For this reason, the most important tool an experienced forager can ever add to his toolkit is extra-quick reflexes.
In other words – nothing (NOTHING) escapes you.
Your senses are always on high alert. You know exactly what signs to look for so you can bring your “A game” the very instant a new food source is detected. You spring into action to claim each tasty prize before your competitors even have time to unfurl their claws.
Like so.
