Kona and the Velociraptor

Kona was bored.

So we went for a quick walk.

Nothing much exciting happened.  Until we got back home   .  .  .

Kona saw him first - a lizard in relative safety behind the trash bins. You know, one of those ugly Velociraptors.  Kona loves to catch those ugly guys. So, as I unhooked Kona's leash I said, "Okay, Kona. I'm gonna move the gray bin out of the way.  You ready?"  With one quick move I pulled the trash bin towards me.  Kona lunged.

The lizard evaded Kona by going to the right into a space between the greens and recyclables. He stared at us, pretty much unafraid.

We tried again.  This time I pulled the green bin towards me.  Kona lunged but fell short.  The lizard ran away.  My bad.  I didn't give Kona enough space.  We'll try again another day.
