I was hoping for the Aurora Borealis last night, but settled for the 4 day old moon. It was cool, breezy, and more important no mosquitos last night! So I decided to sit out for awhile, even reading outside for awhile.

Very gorgeous.
Great detail!
Wish I had the equipment for such beauty.

Thank you. There's no real equipment though, it's a fixed lens camera and handheld, didn't even have to dig out a tripod.

On my way to work today.....
Heard a scratching from a nearby municipal garbage can. Thought it would be the usual squirrel.
But no....

I guess momma rat thought it was a good idea to give birth in there.

Holy he'll that's quite a rat problem.!!!!!!! Would have given me a start!

Aww they're kinda cute, though! Just not so close to a house

Guess they don't empty the trash very often….🫣
