Day 132 - Muskrat Love

I went for a walk along the St. John River yesterday, behind the Beaverbrook Gallery, to check out the flood waters. The river level peaked on Sunday, meaning that Fredericton's riverbank should be slowly reasserting itself.

It was but, as you'll see in tomorrow's picture, the water is still fairly high. My photographic exploits were interrupted, however, when a woman who was walking her dog along the path behind me pointed out a "beaver" playing in the water nearby. Turned out to be this muskrat who was patient enough to let me get quite close. I just wish I could tell if he's in focus!
