Muskrat not impressed by the snow

I came accross this very active muskrat while on a walk near the river. This muskrat was moving across the river ice, diving for food, then climbing back up to eat and groom itself. Here, I captured a moment while it was cleaning, but it almost looks like it’s thinking, “Oh no… not snow again!“
