Bushy-Tailed Woodrat (Neotoma cinerea)

It doesn't take long for animals to re-purpose human-made structures for their own benefit. In a long abandoned shack, I photographed this bushy-tailed woodrat scurrying along a shelf, past an old can of turpentine, and out the window. He seemed quite at home.
