American mink gives a parting glance

Let’s call it Mink Monday. The final capture I took of this beautiful, little creature a few weeks ago.

After having entertained me in a virtually non-stop flurry of action darting in and out of rocks and the water, the mink decided it had enough and headed for home. As it hopped away along the shoreline, it stopped, just briefly, and looked back at me.

I, in turn, thanked it for blessing me with the opportunity to photograph it. I opted for a wider view with this shot, giving a nice environmental shot of it.
