I was looking through the camera's viewfinder and was trying to focus on a Northern Harrier hanging in the breeze over the bluff edge...when all of a sudden I noticed a dark streak at the bottom of the frame. It wasn't until I got home and downloaded the photos that I realized what I had captured. Now I've seen flying squirrels, but I hadn't heard of flying weasels!
Can you believe that?
Well, beware the 1st of April. Happy April Fool's Day!

The true story? I did actually photograph a bounding weasel and caught it while airborne — a very interesting perspective. But, I missed capturing the entire animal by a nose, i.e., only by an inch or so (Darn!). Here's the original photo:
And here's one more view of the weasel, getting ready to dash away from the burrow entrance:
Watch out for April Fool's Day jokes today!

:) We had fun putting that one together. You never know if other people will think it's funny. But every time I looked at the flying weasel picture, I kept smiling and laughing. I'm glad you liked it, too!
