Second Time To See Nutria

Two weeks after seeing nutria for the first time, I found them again. This time I was able to get closer and sit at a picnic table a short distance away and watch them for awhile. There were two of them this time also. This one was in the shadows a bit. You can see the tail which is an easy way to tell them apart from beaver.
