I was sitting on a rock look at some waterfalls in Cascade Canyon and this Marmot just walked right by me and layed down not 5 feet away. Needless to say I had to take a picture of him (or her) all sprawled out on the rock.

This is soooo cute, but exactly what is a marmot? does he live in water or what? What other animal are they related to? I love this picture...and that he was so nearby...its a great shot

You were very lucky to have a wild animal get that close to you- you must have been sitting as still as a statue AND holding your breath at the same time. Nice shot.
