I was trying to take a picture of some ducks when I came across this guy. At first I thought it was a beaver but it has a long tail. If anyone knows what it is, please let me know. Thanks for having a look.

What you have here is your garden variety muskrat!
You got him good too! The warmer weather must have brought him out for a snack.

Super color and clarity. You can even see his nose in the reflections. Great job. Not sure if I've ever seen one before.

Great capture, and such clarity! Even the droplets of water glistening on his coat. Well done!

Don, the people saying that this is a muskrat are right. In our country we call them 'water rabbit' as well. Although it are beautiful and intelligent animals, they pose to us (the people of the Netherland) a great threat as they are digging big holes in our dykes. As the people in Holland are protected against the sea by dykes because the biggest part of Holland is below sea level, we have really no choice, so we must, how pity that is, fight against them.

Lovely colors here, Don. I'm not sure how I stand on their existence, but this one sure made a great subject for your picture.
