@orchid Ermine without a Lady

@orchid imaging it singing a jaunty little song about murdering and eating anything less than 4x it's own size that isn't another kind of weasel. Timed to the bounces.

What a way to die.

@johnefrancis I once saw video of an ermine that grabbed a chickadee that got too close to the ermine's burrow. It was not pretty.
@flyhigh @johnefrancis Mustelids, yo. They're the best. 😍
@flyhigh @johnefrancis
I dunno. You've mentioned two animals that ARE pretty…
@sloanlance @johnefrancis It was the killing that was not pretty. It never is. But that's the way nature is. I once watched a large wolf spider capture a beetle and I can tell you that sure made me see why they are called "wolf" spiders! Wow.
@orchid Who's That PokΓ©mon?

Tu as l'air en pleine forme ! πŸ˜€
@orchid Very funny to think that that bouncing bit of absurd adorableness is, in fact, a mighty hunter.
@orchid I needed that. πŸ’•
@orchid
Since seen several times in the comments: Definitely NOT a rodent, but a mustelid.
Nevertheless: Adorable indeed! 😍
Thanks for sharing!

@orchid

I love stoats. If I was a rodent they'd be in my nightmares, but as a human they're cute as hell.

@orchid
I didn't know I needed this

@orchid what's the name of that cute lil thing? 😻
@orchid ... but how can we tell whether it's a stoat or a weasel? ;-)
@orchid ... because a weasel is weaselly identified, and...
@orchid... a stoat is stoatally different. (sorry!)
@orchid oh a pokemon 😍
@orchid Oyoyoyoyoy (that means how cute).
@orchid my brain could not comprehend this creature as real until it showed the sled or whatever and I realized this was IRL
@orchid i want it to Explode/pos
