The Three Little Lizards

When I was hunting for lizards, I saw three tiny ones. They looked like they had not been hatched very long ago. They were all about the same size, and so I thought that they were probably from the same eggs. One of them was darker than the other ones. His back was a little blackish (very dark brown). But the others were just normal, light brown. I caught the two light ones. And they were so cute, just wiggling around in my hand. I let my brother get a good look at them, and then I let them go and they ran away.

Swallow-Tailed Kite

I saw a bird. It was soaring above. It was flying kind of like a kite, and my mom said that she thought it was the kind of bird that was called the kite. It is quite pretty. It is white underneath. On its tail there are two black lines on the edges, and there are two black lines on the edges of its wings too. It looked like it was soaring for food, since it kind of soars in circles. I love it. But then, my mommy looked it up, and she said that it was called a Swallow-Tailed Kite, instead of just Kite. It was quite pretty.

Northern Bobwhite

When we were eating breakfast, I saw a quail. Then, we saw two of them together. Then we had to go back to the table, and so we didn't see them any more. The end.

The Smallest Lizard I Have Ever Seen

When I was riding my bike, I saw a little shape. It looked like the shape of a little lizard. I got off my bike, and I looked at it closer, and it was a little lizard. I caught him, and I showed him to my mom, and my mom took a picture. Then I took him back to where I had found him, and I put him in a little leaf bed. And he was just lying there on his side, so cute. And then he jumped up, and he started climbing around the little bush that I had put him on. Then, he started walking around in the leaves around the bush. Then he went into a crack, and I didn't see him any more. And that is the end of the tale of the smallest lizard I have ever seen.
