Hi, Additions to jhereg "He flew over to her and wrapped his talons around her wrist. She scratched under his chin, going with the scales." The Book of Taltos, Yendi, Chapter 7, page 233 "She held out her arm, and Loiosh flew to her, allowed his chin to be scratched, and then, just to show his high regard for her, he bent his head to allow her to scratch the scales that concealed his ears: a special mark of honor, because jhereg are very protective of their ears. I don't know if Sethra appreciated the honor." Issola, Chapter 2, paperback, page 31 jhereg have only two legs.
