Tim,....That's keeping with the lore and experiences I've had with weasels/ermine/mink.... Back a few years my buddy Chuck was in my utility room, which leads to the workshop....at that time I had paper faced fiberglas insulation on the ceiling...It had loosened along the edges in a few spots...I was working on a snowmobile and heard him call out, and went too see, He says "Joseph, there's something in your rafters"....(He refuses to get glasses, and was squinting up at the low ceiling) Suddenly a small white conical face pokes out!...omg, what the heck was THAT? he looked close again and it came back out!...Startled him so, he fell back over the gas heater, knocked over a bunch of stuff....We sat on the wooden floor, laughing like idiots.....Finally figured out it was a weasel...Did some reading, and each article mentioned they were elusive, yet curious. I remember one excerpt where one ran up onto a farmers boot in a granary and kept staring up at him....Funny and weird, but I also know weasels can be viscious. So,...food for thought.
