- The Nature Company and REI have a beautiful card featuring a photo of
- a long-tailed
- weasel in its winter fur. It's sitting up and is framed beautifully by
- some branches of a pine tree. The card is printed on recycled paper, too.

- I sent out this card and kept one for myself - I put it in a picture frame
- because its pink nose reminds me so much of the albino ferret I lost a few
- months ago.
