Dan -

Thanks for the compliments.  i couldn't find anything interesting that 
had an actual road in it so I had to go with the Willie Nelson 
definition of "On the Road".  

John, I thought you and Larry would recognize that road!  This was taken in
February, which accounts for the snow on the mountain top.

That image from Dan Mayola sure looks familiar!

Back when I was working in Mountain View (some 20 years ago now)
that is the view I would have had when I was halfway home if I
took Hwy 101 instead of Hwy 85.

Of course it wasn't often that there was a chance to see snow...

Before anyone asks - yes, some of you may you have seen my image before
(it was a PUG entry 14 years ago).  But this is a slightly different crop
that I think is an improvement.

Re: Funny looking squirrels

[Daniel J. Matyola]

Nicely captured and presnted.

Our fox doesn't seem interested in birdseed;  there are plenty of
squirrels, rabbits and chickens around to attract them.  Deer are, however,
a huge problem with bird feeders;  I now only put out 2 thistle feeders for
the finches, plus two suet and nuts/berries feeders for the woodpeckers,
high up so the deer don't go after them.
When I used to put out sunflower seed, I used a nice "squirrel-proof" metal
feeder.  One evening I found it on the ground, and reinstalled it higher up
and more securely .  That mnigghrt it was agin on the ground.  Then my
neighbor showed me an image of the young black bear that was causing the
problem.  That is when I decided only  thistle and small suet feeders high
up.

Thanks for sharing.

Funny looking squirrels

[Larry Colen]

A common problem when people try to put out birdseed is squirrels going after 
the birdseed.  

Lately I’ve been having something else doing the same:

These were shot through the screen in the bathroom window, so they could suck 
less, but they’re much better than what I’ve been able to get so far:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/albums/72177720301041720
I think this one is larger, it seems bolder, and has a spot over it's left hip
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/52262241663/in/album-72177720301041720/
The one in the frames after 399 is smaller, more skittish and doesn't seem to 
have the spot on its hip
https://www.flickr.com/photos/ellarsee/52262721915/in/album-72177720301041720/

These are what I’ve been able to capture with my phone, I did get some nearly 
acceptable video:
