Aww... It’s a cute baby dragon.

And look! It has grown wings! It must be close to maturing.

Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it typically marks the beginning of maturation. At this point they are often capable of hunting on their own and are usually left alone by their mother.

A pink blur flies across the sky, painting fading stripes across the sky. The flying creature is moving far too quickly to be followed by the naked eye.

Fuchsia Bird, as her name implies, loves to fly. She spends most of her time in the air, trying to fly faster and faster, and farther and farther. She has a lot of energy, though, so sometimes flies from dawn into the night before exhaustion catches up to her.
