Cute Little Muskrat At The Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary In Wellfleet On Cape Cod

We were taking a hike along the Silver Spring Trail at the Mass Audubon Wildlife Sanctuary the other day when I saw some movement among the Pond Lilies. A turtle could not cause that much movement. What could it be?

We watched this little Muskrat swim across the little inlet and then come up on shore about 3 feet from us. It was very dark in the shade and there were a lot of branches and leaves, but we got a couple of photographs of him.

He’s about the size of a rat. Look at those feet and that long tail. Have you ever seen a Muskrat?
