Late afternoon yard visitor. Movements and behavior seemed natural. I was just out in the yard 15 minutes earlier. Very confusing sight at first as it walked 15 feet from our backdoor, had to doubletake. Careful when you wish for a way to make the moles to go away. 😂

I'll try to get a better handle when I can get to a computer. Metallic and reflective back.
