Muskrat Lovin'

Just to keep the wildlife theme going, here is a picture of a muskrat that lives in the swamp behind my brother's cabin. We watched him surface, swim to the grassy area, chew several stalks of grass off at the base, and swim back with the sheaf of grass in him mouth. At a certain point in the water he'd dive with the grass.

What I've read is that muskrats have burrows with underwater entrances, so my guess is this muskrat is redecorating a little.
