It was dank along the east bank of the River Stour early this morning when I spotted this mink swimming downstream, zigzagging from one bank to the other, looking for its breakfast I expect. I followed the little fella for fifteen minutes or more. It was a very busy and focused mink.

Very well spotted indeed, Mike.
(I would have seen the ripples in the water, but not what was making them).

Thanks Vicki. It was indeed seeing the ripples that alerted me to presence of the mink.

Fantastic photos, I’d have been so excited I would probably have scared it off!
