Mink on McDowell Creek


This was the first year for us to spot minks on McDowell Creek.  Perhaps minks are moving in or perhaps they have always been here and our trail cams weren't in the right place.  In any case, welcome, minks!

Since then, there have been multiple heavy rains and high water, sweeping away the beaver dams and rewriting the creek.   We hope the minks and the beavers came through it all.   We'll see what the summer brings!
