A nice view of this lethal little predator, Jeff. It sounds like it was having a busy day! It looks like there's a hook in the mouth of that fish too? it really wasn't his day, was it.

A fierce little hunter! He probably wasn’t very hungry after all that. A unique capture.

Gosh, I hope that isn't a hook- that the mink might swallow! Quite the scene-pretty intense!

Looks like the whiskers of a catfish to me.

Great looking behavioral shot. Terrific timing to have such good eye contact. All those weasel family specimens are very fierce for their size. Well done !!
