Wolf's Ears

Wolf's Ears is a location in Silverwing. It is one of the landmarks included in Shade's migration sound map.

Description
Wolf's Ears is a mountain summit with two peaks jutting outwards, somewhat resembling the ears of a wolf. It is a landmark along the migration route of Shade's colony.

In the TV series
As Shade and Marina approach the mountains, Marina questions whether they are going the right way, arguing that her colony never migrated through the mountains. Shade recalls his sound map, but they are both confused about what it means to "fly through a wolf's ears". Marina suggests that Shade's sound map may be wrong, to which he attempts to echo project an impression of a wolf in the air before them.

After escaping from the cabin and saving most of the banded bats from Goth and Throbb, Penelope asks Shade and Marina if there is anything she can do to repay them. Shade asks her if she has ever flown through wolf ears before, to which Penelope points them towards the twin peaks in the distance. Shade and Marina fly towards the peaks and huddle beneath them to evade Goth and Throbb.

Trivia

 * Wolf's Ears is based on The Lions, a pair of pointed mountain peaks that serve as an iconic landmark in Vancouver, British Columbia.
