I saw this lil guy swimming around right before sunset in Hayden Valley (Yellowstone National Park). It was unsure from the face whether he was a beaver or a muskrat. Fortunately he raised his tail and I saw that it was definitely a muskrat.
I love the golden setting sun reflecting off the calm lake…so peaceful!
A Muskbeavotter 😃
Better add that to the dictionary!
Cool animal in a wonderful setting!
Thanks, Phil! Stay tuned for more otters, too!
