Welcome to Ferret Town



This was shot on Saturday in Glacier National Park, Montana, on the Hidden Lake hiking trail (which runs along the eastern edge of the Continental Divide). As my sisters and I were scouting a place to stop for lunch, I noticed a flurry of activity just off the path. Closer examination was fruitful and I captured what my extremely-reliable-and-brainy-biologist-older-sister said was a rare moment: a flurry of gutsy juvenile arctic ferrets darting about their burrow system, excitedly waiting for their mom to come home and feed them a vole.

No editing done on video, just a little Beethoven "Symphony No. 3 in E-flat major, Opus 55" remix.
