Ran Across A Fisher


I was out riding my bike in the woods the other day and ran across this little guy. I had never seen one before so I had to find out what he was...

It was late afternoon and he was running down the ditch on the side of the logging road toward me while I quietly pedaled toward him. He saw me and jumped out of the ditch and ran across the road about thirty feet in front of me, then jumped up into a tree like a squirrel would, only then changed his mind and jumped down and ran off down the hill toward a creek...

Some wildlife encounters I like...

I'm rather fond of all the branches of the Mustelid family tree. They're all curious, intelligent, playful and remarkably resourceful. Plus, they're beautiful. What's not to like?
