In addition to many mainstream activities during the summer, we caught a lizard. We saved her (he?) from the wrath of our dog, who was about to pounce on her and play with her. We only kept it for a day and let it go, but it was fun to peer down on her. There are interesting things that you can see, find, catch, and investigate right in your backyard. We tried to find out what it eats. After much research (very educational), we determined that we would not want to keep it as a pet. Well, I guess I determined that.
The kids named her Lizzie. When we let her go, she hung out for a while, just starting at us. The kids thought she was saying thank you for rescuing her from the dog. Maybe so. Even if you don't like lizards, she is kinda cute, don't ya think?
