Amazing Mink Family Pix
Quite a family of mink here. Five that I counted, 2 adults 3 young. I am so blessed by God to have been able to witness them playing for 5 min. Very happy!!
Taken today 7/5/14 around 8 am at the north end of the pond at the Celery Farm. I can't stop smiling.
I also have a very short movie, 23 seconds, but the first 10 seconds are just me holding my breath and trying to move. Link to the movie is here.
Three more pix follow. (Thanks, Frank!)

I agree Barbara, each time I go I am amazed by what I find. With pure luck and the good sense not to move as they came tumbling out of the marsh grass, I was able to watch them for almost 5 min. And the blessing of being able to see and photograph a whole family still has me smiling. It’s also good to see nature progressing and new families emerging at the Celery Farm.

Wow, how adorable are they!! What a great experience for you Frank, thank you for sharing with everyone!
Between baby wood ducks jumping into the lake and baby mink playing, just shows what a wonderful place the Celery Farm is and how lucky we are to have it!
