No way! I saw those minks at the very same spot at the same pier! I can tell where it is ;) Just last summer... Little rascals..

I had no idea there was still mink in Michigan. I am thrilled to see it. I had a friend tell me they saw a family of mink in Manistee, wasn't sure I believed them but now I do. Thanks for posting!
