American mink keeps watch for a meal

I reckon since this was taken a few months ago we could call it one for #ThrowbackThursday.

I spent a half hour photographing this little cutie as it darted in and out of the rocks and water, hunting for breakfast. As this was only the second or third time I had ever photographed a mink, I was pretty darned giddy with the opportunity.

While these little guys are not uncommon or rare, it isn’t often they are seen. Not too long ago, I got word that a family of mink were at this spot which is fantastic to hear that I may get another chance to see them.
