Answer to the Two Questions Meme

The answer is the Living Roof at the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. I took the shot from across the way at the DeYoung Museum with my zoom lens. It's fascinating to see in person and you can learn more by visiting http://www.calacademy.org/academy/building/the_living_roof.php

The picture above is from the Cal. Academy website. If you are ever in San Francisco, this roof is a must see.

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
