Almost all our local grey #squirrels are in fact jet black. We rarely see a grey and (of course) red is entirely absent.

Out and about this afternoon with a 2x extender on my zoom lens doing test photos on local #raptors. I'm not convinced by the extender (fringing, softness, unwieldiness) and will likely exchange it . . . . the 100-400 L Mk2 is enough by itself 👍

Imagine it. No toys forged in distant factories, no screens glowing with borrowed dreams. Just 52 rectangles of faded cardboard, edges curled from a thousand shuffles by hands before his. In a life stripped to essentials, imagination is the ultimate wealth.

Hero’s of the day - In a small town of Beckley, WV, Kendra Sullivan staged a one-woman No Kings protest. She was confronted, had the police called on her, but stood her ground. She was physically threatened. Police came more than once and protected her right to protest. This is how we do it.
