Have you ever seen a nutria?

On our morning walk a few days ago, we saw this young lady by a nutria enjoying a little sunshine on the shore of Barton Creek. It's not often you see these animals.

  1. This is the first time I've ever encountered one, but this one seemed almost tame! Here is the picture our friend Jackie contributed of her sighting on LB Lake: http://austintexasdailyphoto.blogspot.com/2011/05/nutria.html

  2. Wow! A Nutria dug a hole through the dam at our creek when I was a kid. I was always terrified that it was going to get me with it's big claws, but I never actually saw one until now!
