WINTER 1973; 20 MILES FROM CANADA, WHITE ERMINE

1973 in the dead of winter what about a foot and a half of snow covering the roads; I decided to go hunting! I found myself a huge pinetree it look like a Christmas tree it was generous huge! The snow is gently falling again and I got a tad sleepy so I leaned up against a tree and I fell asleep! I am not sure how long I slept because I never took a watch with me I went by daylight time and what you could see! Well the snow what is gently falling in a little bit ice cream stores twinkle pass my nose and I woke up into my amazement that little white flowers just having a good time running all over my legs in around me! Remaining still I watched him or her and we had a good time!

Weasels are mammals of the genus Mustela of the family Mustelidae. The genus Mustela includes the least weasels, polecats, stoats, ferrets, and European mink. Members of this genus are small, active predators, with long and slender bodies and short legs.

Just sharing a little bit of what I song but this little fellow in this video looks almost exactly why don't one I saw back in 1973! They are beautiful animals!The greatest differences between an ermine and a weasel are their size and morphology. Ermines, also called stoats, are small mammals that weigh between 6 and 9 ounces and grow up to 13 inches. They have bushy tails, thick bodies, a black tip on their tail, and fur that can turn snow white in the winter. Weasels only weigh up to 8 ounces and measure 10 inches long. They have a stubby, brown tail, a slender body, and fur that stays brown all year long.

These are the most noticeable differences and are the most useful ways at helping people tell these animals apart. We’re going to look closer at the four key differences between an ermine and a weasel.
