AttributeError: 'WindowsPath' object has no attribute 'endswith' -- WindowsPath is correct and contains files that endswith .tif

I'm stuck at the following error message:

AttributeError: 'WindowsPath' object has no attribute 'endswith'

Here is a part of the code:

im_path = Path("C:/Users/zeiss/_Python/fastddm-main/tests/test-imgs/confocal/")images = np.array([fddm.tiff2numpy(im) for im in sorted(im_path.iterdir()) if im.name.endswith(".tif")])images = np.ascontiguousarray(images)images.shape

And the error message:

Can someone offer advice on what might be causing this? Thanks!

I confirmed that WindowsPath refers to the actual path with TIF files.
