Duck Lake Lakeside View

The sudden sound of birds honking noisily and taking flight startled Bones awake. She bolted upright, eyes flicking upward to watch the ducks fly away then plummeting like a rock to search for the origin of the disturbance. Her gaze fell upon a beige wolf approaching the lake's opposite shore, her own head tilted upward to watch the waterfowl's winged departure. Bones squinted, trying to make out details, but she couldn't see much from here.

"Ahoy!" she bellowed at the top of her lungs, springing to her feet and beginning to make a lap around the lake. In a few moments, she followed the curving shore toward the unfamiliar she-wolf and paused, panting and bright-eyed. "Me name's Bones! I was just takin' a nap in the sunshine. It's a great place for it," she shared, stretching out her hind legs as she spoke.
