To all the doubters...

Some people, regular readers if you will, may remember that on April 22, 2010, I claimed that I saw a Groundhog at work. There were doubters, and I can't blame them, because I had no proof. All I had was my word, and also Mike's word.

Well, word this!



Sure, the photos aren't of great quality, but I was shooting with the Canon, which I'm not used to anymore. It was nice of the camera to focus on the grass in the first shot... Despite the lack of focus, they get the job done.

It was a lucky spot - I was in someone's office and something moving across the grass towards the flower beds caught my eye. Yep - it was big enough to see from the 5th floor. So, I left and went back a minute later and saw something moving through the flowers. I knew it had to be it, but no-one was around to verify my story, so I grabbed the camera and went downstairs to find it still there. I came back in and showed Erin, and she thinks that it is a groundhog as well.

It was cool to see it, and I learned something new: apparently, groundhogs, or at least this groundhog, have an odor like an enclosure at the zoo.
