In fairness, looks like the fellow might have found his way indoors judging by the background, difficult to say if it's indoors or some sort of patio, but what I'm trying to get at is picking it up and taking a quick video before returning it to the outdoors might have been the merciful option here.

Congratulations to you both on being kind and polite people! I was preparing to read through yet another thread of "you're an idiot because MLEH" / "you can't even read because if you COULD you'd know I was saying SPLEH!"

You've both restored my faith in anonymous humans on the internet. What tattered little of it remains, anyways...

It was clear but I appreciate the clarification all the same and especially the excellent use of spoiler markup 😊

I can only expect what I've been conditioned to expect! Lovely to see a non-flame war get rolling
