Mink

Look who I met on my walk today. When I moved here in the late 60s, seeing mink was almost a daily occurrence. There were several large mink farms here and lots of escapees running around :-)

The mink farms are long gone and it has been years and years since the last time I saw a mink here.
How cute, I have never seen one before.

Very cute. I hope they have established a community and that they won't be hunted :-)

He's a cute little guy! I don't think I've ever seen a mink before.

Great shot!

wow - were they originally native to your area?

Thanks everyone for your kind comments.

Minks are not native to Norway. They are all descendants of animals that have escaped (or have been released by activists) from mink farms. The animals were farmed for their fur. They are an unwanted species in Norway.
