Grey Squirrel

A grey squirrel (Sciurus carolinensis) feeding on maple keys just outside our living room window.  There are four of these squirrels living in the trees that surround our flats.

Moth Fly

A moth fly (Diptera: Psychodidae) on an iris blade.  I have no idea of the genus nor the species.  See here for one of my earlier photos of moth flies.
