Incredible experience with this Mink. She was moving her babies from one den to another. When I arrived, I was told she had already moved 2. I saw her move 2 more.
Not sure why she was doing this, but guessing her den was disturbed somehow. It is right next to a place where fishermen sit, but not sure if it was that or another animal that got up in there.
Such interesting behavior to see!

Well, shiver me timbers. I heard fluttering in my office, and looked up to see this guy in my window. I have a big Christmas cactus that I brought in...about October. I assume he was pupating in there somewhere.

hunting from nearby tree, about 10:30am, looking intently down at snow, then landed and mantled for a couple of minutes, burying its head into the snow several times before flying off in the opposite direction

Not as fluffy as the photos, so I'm not sure. Also looks a bit like American dagger moth.
