Redhawk Caldera smart in an original way

Lagan heard a familiar bark and turned his head just in time to see an acorn flying for his face. It bopped him on his black nose, then skirted into the grass beneath him. He shook his head a few times, and did a little sneeze, then looked back towards Towhee with a smile. She laid down beside him and Lagan chuckled. Being a goofy kid, Lagan vent his head down and fished the acorn out of the grass with his mouth. He held it there and looked back to Towhee. Then he puffed out his cheeks all big like a chipmunk.

His tail wagging, he opened his mouth again to reveal the acorn sitting on the end of his long pink tongue. Then without warning he spat the acorn like a dart down the side of the hill and watched it tumble out of view.
