Birds in My Viewfinder 
Nice Pic! But it got me wondering: I only had a vague idea of what a “harlequin” was, so I looked it up and spent a good 15 minutes going doing a bunch of rabbit holes…….from commedie dell’arte to English pantomine to Batman’s The Joker’s assistant to modern “Call of Duty” games. Phew! The black and red patchwork costume (hence your duck), the mask, the acrobatics, etc. Who said scientists don’t need a liberal arts background? Thanks for the inspiration to learn! George
