You pluck a few mushrooms and stuff them in your pack. Then you continue to mine gathering more stone and silver ore. Then a thought hits you, baby jabberers!!! You sequel in excitement and hop around to the business end of your mount. You prop it's hindquarters in the air and check... no eggs, and you're pretty sure it's a boy. Drat! You think to yourself that you REALLY need to come up with a plan besides probing helpess animals. (+2 silver ore, +3 plump helmet)

The weredwarf Urist McUrist has come! A bearded drunkard twisted into minute form. It is crazed for booze and socks. Its unwashed beard is tangled. It needs alcohol to get through the working day and has gone without a drink for far too long. Now you will know why you fear the mines.

Et tu, Urist

:D
Look to see if there're more mushrooms to grab up and get them. Look for more stuff to dig out. Then try taking the jabberer for a ride again!

And see if you can find where you are on the map, too.

It MADE a nest, it didn't CLAIM any.

How is the peasant lifting up that jabberer with one hand?
Anywho, we need something to do. Hunt around for interesting shinies and such that may be useful.

Can't help but notice that our inventory has no booze in it. It's only a matter of time before the hangover wears off, so we should probably scope out the area and try to find an exit.
Even if we decide to set up shop down here, it would be smart to know where the exit is.

Adventurers don't need alcohol. At least I don't think so.

Nonsense. Every dwarf needs booze. It's a basic necessity of Dwarven life.

In fact, look at that, plump helmets. Our nameless bearded adventurer should ferment that. Actually, let's pull that citrine out of our ring and runesmith strength onto this new drink, too. Only the strongest alcohol is worth drinking.

I think you should camp there until you mine out the ore vein and any gems you find. Digging a supply depot/shelter there would also be a good idea, if you end up with more stuff you and the bird can carry. Or just put a stone door in a chokepoint in the mined out vein, and hoard stuff inside. Including some rock pots with mushrooms inside, some to be stored, some to be fermented. You could use this as a fallback point if you need to rest in the general area.

That's one baby jabberer. You know that those grow as high as cavern ceiling, right? :P

That's pretty cool.
Also, the DF wiki says jabberers are wingless.
