I was so amused watching this Muskrat dive under the ice to grab mouthfuls of green vegetation. After finishing each mouthful, he looked at me and I could see he had a piece of green stuff caught between his bottom two teeth... I laughed because that always happens to me too

Poor guy, he's about to become world famous in his first photo shoot with greens stuck in his teeth! Yes, its always greens, isn't it!

A fine capture of Mr Ratty Missy!

I like the matching colors in the BG. Very good detail on the muskrat.

Beautiful light and detail on this guy Missy, I would prefer a little less room on top and more of the reflection.
