She can both see and feel the shift in his demeanor overall once they near the new territory; and she follows the path of his gaze where it's scanning the foliage. She doesn't miss the moment where his hand touches the gun at his hip either; stirring a similar caution within her as she steps out of the car.
Standing beside him near the hood of the car, she glances over at him; thinking that's a fairly ominous statement, but she doesn't feel unsafe. Her senses, however, are sharpened as much as they can be; and considering she has slightly better hearing and vision than a normal human, thanks to her elven blood; she picks up the moment there's a faint rustling in the foliage.
Her gaze snaps to where the sound originates, off to the right. It's so subtle, and so quiet that if she weren't focusing intently; she'd miss it entirely. But the rustling continues, closer and closer until her gaze finally picks up on what's different in the swatch of green before her. She sees the subtle outline of the animal's head, then narrows in on it's eye watching the both of them. There's a slight intake of breath from Yennefer, unaccustomed to just how stealthy the approach had been. Who knows how long this creature had been there, watching them. Maybe it only started to make noise on purpose, to draw their attention.
That theory is confirmed, rather abruptly; when a second animal suddenly emerges from the foliage and charges the fence from the far left; snarling menacingly. Yennefer outright gasps in shock as her head whips around to the second animal, her hand raising instinctively to create an invisible barrier spell in front of the both of them.
It's not needed of course, considering the fence. But, her reflexes were quicker than her logical mind. The fence makes a sound as the animal hits it, then disappears once more into the foliage. The sound of other raptors can be heard then, moving around in the leaves unseen, then all falls eerily silent once more.
She breathes a quiet sigh, the barrier spells dissipating when she lowers her hand. When she looks over at Muldoon her features are sharpened and serious the way they would be if they were both out hunting in dangerous territory.
"Is it... harmed?" She asks, a small furrow in brow indicated that for all that that display had certainly startled and unsettled her, to say the least; she's somewhat concerned that the animal had charged such a high powered fence like that.
