My computer always opens up with a screen of something spectacular or interesting. Then you can click on search to find out more about it. Today's title was "a russet potato with ears" and a photo of a small animal. I was a bit curious.

It turned out to be a pika. It's a lagomorph, ie part of the rabbit family. I'd never even heard of them before let alone seen one.
