Saw this little fellow on a shelf in our storage area. Sure looks like he’d be more at home perched atop a pirate’s shoulders. And maybe he was. I’m not sure where he came from exactly but my guess is he may have been a prop in the Rogue History series we produced for PBS Origins. Regardless, a fitting photo for the Friday after Thanksgiving.
Many of us at PBS North Carolina worked from home for several years (some still do) thanks to the pandemic. Now that I’ve returned to work at our facility in RTP, I am constantly reminded of the overabundance of wildlife in the vicinity. Deer and geese are a regular sight and, over the years, I’ve spotted wild turkeys, foxes, groundhogs and more. Here’s a shot of a goose, one of a breeding pair, enjoying a puddle near the loading dock in the rear of our station. You can see the reflection of one of our production trucks in the water (the old UNC-TV logo, since we haven’t gotten the new brand on them yet).
