Mink at the Pond
"The funny thing about wishes. Sometimes all it took to make them come true was a first step."
T.J. Klune
Jim and I set out last weekend to a special pond we visit. (see prior post pic of the pond). Our goal was to find some spring wildlife, perhaps Red-winged blackbirds, tree swallows, a muskrat or two, and possibly the bullfrogs. We were so excited to see this American Mink. It was very far away, but I had my 500mm lens and he had his binoculars so we were able to get a good look. We first thought it was a muskrat, but they are much "plumper" with a much different face. These are not animals we see often. I think this may be my 3rd sighting of one, and Jim's second sighting. We also saw our Red-winged blackbirds and tree swallows.
