Decades ago, when in the Navy and visiting my in-laws in Ohio. I made the off hand comment to my mother-in-law, "If you ever come across one of those black squirrels, hit on the side of the road. I could sure the tail in my fly tying." To my surprise, on her next visit, she pulls a black squirrel tail, saran wrapped, from her purse. Glad I didn't ask for a fox squirrel pelt!
