They feed on the Green crabs regularly in the cove. I never cease to be  
amazed at how well they swim and dive.

Hi All 
This afternoon my wife and I were down to  the Island

View Canteen for a break. The tide was down  but coming back.

and a variety of rocks were exposed out in  the water.

A mink started swimming between the rocks.  It would sit up on one,

look around and then swim to the next. At  one rock it brought up

a green crab too. It gave it a few vigorous  shakes and then swam off

to shore probably to a den in the  rocks.

Green Crabs do not have a good reputation  but the mink seemed

pleased with its catch!

Enjoy the fall

Paul
