Long-tailed weasel - a very rare site!
Stressed from work, I called in sick for a mental health day to go hiking at Pt Reyes with my camera.
Thoughts of management on my mind, this amazing weasel hopped out right in front of me that afternoon.
It had zero concern that I was there and never paid me any attention. It stayed focused on hunting and searching.
The sun shined upon me and my eyes were opened. This was my totem animal before me! I was asked "What would the weasel do?"
The next day I headed back to work where from that day on, I always did what a weasel would do when I thought management sucked.
