Swimming Squirrel

We were out in the boat hoping to photograph wood ducks. We didn't see any, but we got some kingfisher photos. On the way back, Chris spotted something swimming across the lake. At first we thought it was a muskrat or even a beaver, but when we got close, we we astonished to see it was a squirrel. It was so far out that it didn't appear to have fallen in from a tree, but looked to be crossing the lake.
