Ava, barbarian, mother, crone.
I finished watching episode 8 of burrows end today. It was a lot. Ava’s strength and tenacity are admirable, but I never want to be that cold, especially to my family.
Say your ‘I’m sorry’s and ‘I love you’s, they are so important, to you an others.

Leucistic American Badger at Point Reyes!
Recently, a unique sight was spotted here in Point Reyes National Seashore - a leucistic American Badger! You may think that it is an albino, but if you look closely, you’ll notice that its eyes are actually brown or black, not pink. Its nose also has some pigment to it.
Leucism is a genetic mutation where there is only a partial loss of pigmentation, while albinism is when there is a total absence of pigmentation. Albino creatures will look white (or sometimes pale yellowish) in color, with very pale pink or red eyes. Leucistic creatures can look white in patches or almost completely white, but their eyes will always have color to them. Just like this badger whose normally brown stripes are showing up more as a dark cream color!

Weasel/vessla. Here in Värmland, some of the weasels molt their fur during winter, mirroring the behaviour of those further north, while others retain their brown pelage throughout the year, akin to those in southern regions of the country. Värmland, Sweden (February 25, 2018).
