It is always fun to see a Muskrat swimming as they seem to move fast in the water. On this warm spring day this Muskrat swims up to what appears to be a small nest on the shoreline and begins to sun himself. Watched him for some time as he cleaned himself and then he seemed to "fluff" the nest so he can rest comfortably.
