Something strange swimming in the RR
Hey all!
Earlier this week I was fishing the RR near my grandfathers farm in North Branch. I was casting a spinner and I saw something move in the water. Thinking it was a fish, I casted at it. Luckily I didnt catch it because it was definitely not a fish! Some kind of hairy animal, a fast swimmer. I called my grandfather to tell him about it, he thought it was a muskrat, but I thought it was bigger than that. Too small to be a beaver. My thought it that it was an otter! It was long and thin and swam with grace, I watched it swim across the river and it scurried up the bank before I could get a good look at it.
I know otters have made a little bit of a comeback in Jerz, is it possible thats what I saw? Any input is appreciated, thanks all!
