Thought I would share my muskrat bedding on top of three beavers from =
today. I seen it two years ago as well and captured it but not nearly as =
good with branches and small alders being in the way. You can see that =
image further into the animals gallery. Today I spent 2 1/2 hours =
watching these 3 beaver & muskrat in a much better location. I wanted to =
get the muskrat tail in the image too, to better show that it's truly a =
muskrat for ID purposes and not a small beaver but it didn't happen. I =
did get the tail in another image but not showing the body of the =
muskrat as well. The small beaver in front would be a pup from 2010, no =
beavers have pups as small as a muskrat this time of year. Pretty neat =
how the beavers allow the muskrat to be so close. I have heard that =
beavers will allow muskrats to live in their den, this one is definitely =
part of the family. You warm my back and I'll warm your feet.
