We're well and truly into the busiest part of our season now. The days have turned long and hot and air is alive with the sound of cicadas. When we walk the dogs in the vineyard we frequently hear a speedy rustle ahead of us as one of these big beauties runs for cover.

Lézard ocellé - Ocellated lizard

I absolutely adore them. They are magnificent creatures with beautiful markings and are a protected species. But Kit and Flynn don't know that and can sometimes spend a quarter of an hour barking at a dense bush until, eventually, one of them manages to grab the lizard, and with one swift shake of the head the poor lizard's life is over. Any ideas how to stop them?
