    A 1st for me

    Not my 1st muskrat, but it is my 1st DRY muskrat. MN Shutterbug and I came across this muskrat in northern Minnesota a couple weeks ago. I have seen a lot of muskrats over the years, but this is the first one I have ever seen with a completely dry coat. It was so out of place that we didn't realize what it was at first. Once we saw the tail we figured it out.

    Hey, I recognize that furry little fella. I think he may have had alzheimers or dementia.

    Unique find, that for sure. A dry muskrat and a photographer: What are the odds their paths cross?
