We briefly interrupt the backlog to present a valiant orange seen today. Annie spotted the shorthair on a property at Lincoln and Louisiana, which is inches outside the neighborhood’s official boundary. Hence, the honorary designation.
There was a second tabby, this one grey, and they chased one another about. The other disappeared into shrubs, then the space between buildings to the alley behind. The orange followed, moving with the suddenness of a summer storm—that explains choice of nickname Tempest.
As handy as the zoom capabilities of Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra may be, they cannot compare to Nikon Zf and NIKKOR Z 24-200mm f/4-6.3 VR lens. Capturing the Featured Image, autofocus proved to be super speedy, and accurate, and the captured detail is impressive. Vitals: f/6.3, ISO 400, 1/250 sec, 150mm; 10:16 a.m. PDT.
