Short-tailed Weasel

Yesterday I hiked one of my all-time favorite trails, the Tomales Point Trail at Point Reyes Nationals seashore. It’s always a great hike for viewing wildlife, and yesterday I got to watch Tule Elk, Northern Harriers, and even a big Striped Skunk foraging in a canyon. But my favorite was a close encounter with a Short-tailed Weasel (also known as ermine or stoat). Click on the photo to watch a short video:
