I always wanted some good closeup shots of wild canines. Here was this opportunity! This fellow was searching for food and did not care how close I was.

Whitemud Park, Edmonton, AB, Canada

Walked through the Whitemud Park hoping to find an owl or two, but no success. However, found this curious weasel near the viewing platform. I only got two shots; it ran away in my second frame because of my flash.
This is an edited photo. The unedited photo contains a illuminated tree next to the weasel, some cyan-coloured eyes from the flash output, and may be a few twigs behind the weasel. If you wish to see the original, I'm more than happy to share that. Nonetheless, the weasel was still out in the open in the same spot.
Also, I ran into another Flickrite named Clyde. We were talking about weasels at Hawrelak Park before I went to Whitemud Park.
If I made a mistake in the "long-tailed" ID, please feel free to correct me. Thanks!

The above photo shows there are two Coyotes living at the park. The mangy-looking one is on the right. Just be aware that the mangy coyote may approach you if you're not on the trail.
From the City of Edmonton: Arrhuuuu! Aware that Coyotes are a Natural Part of Our City?
