Short-tailed Weasel.

Ottawa, Ontario. Canada.

The short-tailed weasel (Ermine) has a life expectancy of one year in the wild but can live up to 6 years.

Normally brown coloured in the summertime, this weasel's coat turns white as winter approaches. It is very skittish but I was able to observe and note its behaviour. From this I will know how best to approach it. At one point it came to within a few feet of me.

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Thanks Gillian. He behaves like someone who found the key to the candy store and spent hours enjoying it. Very hyper.

Great capture! He doesn't sit still very long, does he?
