What was on your menu for Thanksgiving? No, I did not dine on muskrat for Thanksgiving dinner, but early in the morning yesterday this little muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus) at Huntley Meadows Park decided to celebrate the holiday with some fresh greens. That was almost certainly a healthier meal than most of us consumed later in the day.

I did enjoy a bowl of soup that my daughter made, that included kale. I think a serving of kale makes the whole meal healthy.
You must have been in stealth mode, Mike. That’s a good photo.
I was on a slightly elevated boardwalk for that shot. The muskrat was oblivious to my presence. The challenge for me was to maneuver myself to get a visual tunnel that me get as unobstructed view as I could.
This little guy is so cute! You are right about the healthiness of his meal and mine. Happy Thanksgiving!
