In a
recently declassified photo from the Apollo 17 lunar landing, speculation about
life on the moon...
No -
that's not it. Let's try this,
Hollywood
is abuzz about leaked stills from the new movie "Gophers in
Spaacce"...
13,000
feet on Mount Evans, well above treeline, the ground is rocks and sand with
very little growing or moving. At least
until this guy shot across the trail. A
marmot - bigger than a squirrel, smaller than a ground hog - named after an
outdoor clothing company (or maybe it's the other way around?)
He looks cute! Are marmots cute?
ReplyDeleteHe sure is cute to me as well. Probably not very friendly, but what a fantastic shot you got!
ReplyDeleteI guess they are cute - social anyway. This one dove into a burrow, then came out onto the rocks watching us. Until we got too close, then back to the burrow, then back out watching...
DeleteIn the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, 'Au revoir, gopher'.
ReplyDeleteWhere's Carl Spackler when you need him?
And that's all she wrote.
DeleteVery cool photo! :-)
