Watch later when the ice forms for the push ups. Push ups are much smaller and base on the ice. They provide breathing holes as the muskrat swims under the ice. The material in the push up helps to prevent the breathing hole from freezing. Now I can see you going out in the winter and opening these things up to see if I'm right. If you do open them be very careful putting the material back so the air holes and lodges don't freeze out.Redhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17996243850279671523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-58457407957157717862014-10-25T15:47:24.480-04:002014-10-25T15:47:24.480-04:00It's never a good thing, feeling sick, particu...It's never a good thing, feeling sick, particularly that... it just wipes out every bit of energy.<br /><br />I'm sure Daisy enjoyed startling the duck.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7155086611992337391.post-34090344143293703202014-10-25T12:27:55.711-04:002014-10-25T12:27:55.711-04:00Hope you feel fully better soon.
