Muskrat Marvels - Aquatic Architects and Fur-tastic Friends!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness the incredible world of CAN-2146, also known as the Muskrat. This charming creature is a true master of both land and water, making its home in marshes, ponds, lakes, and streams across New York's picturesque landscapes. With autumn in full swing, our furry friend takes advantage of the season by venturing overland to explore new territories. Feasting on a delightful menu of aquatic vegetation, clams, frogs, and even fish on occasion - it's safe to say that this muskrat has quite an eclectic palate! But what truly sets these critters apart is their remarkable ability to construct houses right within shallow waters or burrow into riverbanks. Each house plays host to one family unit - talk about prime real estate! These architectural wonders serve as cozy sanctuaries for these valuable fur animals. John Cancalosi's lens captures the essence of this North American treasure with stunning precision. From its sleek fur coat glistening under the sun to its adorable whiskers peeking through icy surroundings - every detail tells a story worth cherishing. So let us celebrate these industrious muskrats who effortlessly navigate between two worlds while reminding us all that nature holds endless surprises just waiting to be discovered!
