Have you seen the latest YouTube video on The Wicker Woman Channel? This one is of a weasel, called an ermine in the winter, who was trying to eat the suet at the bird feeder in our back yard.
You can watch it here or on the Weavin’ Wicker Woman Blog, or subscribe to The Wicker Woman YouTube Channel. Enjoy!
Oh my gosh! He is so beautiful. I know they can be vicious but that is just too cute. I had to call my son in to see. He got a stuffed weasel when he was little and still loves them. I’ll have to head over to youtube so I can rate the video 🙂
Thanks, so glad you and your son enjoyed the weasel/ermine video. Hubby and I had fun watching him too, and my little 2 1/2 year old granddaughter just loved it! We like having them around because they keep down the mouse, vole and shrew population! Reading about the way they kill their prey is not pretty, though.
Very cute! Thanks for posting.
That is just the cutest video! I know he wasn’t supposed to eat the bird suet but it was still cute. Thank you for sharing it with us.

Isn’t that little guy something Barbara? Since they are very good predators of mice, voles, and shrews we don’t mind having a few weasel/ermine hang around the shop and the house, as long as they stay outside! Sure does help to keep down the mouse population, I’ll tell you what! Thanks for posting, took a look at your lovely gourd work on your blog and was really impressed!
