[LincolnTalk] weasels and stoats

[Colleen Katsuki]

I always thought that stoat was simply the English word for weasel, but 
apparently it is the name of a specific English weasel. Here in New 
England we have three kinds of weasels: the long-tailed, the Ermine, and 
the short- tailed. I saw a  short tailed once on my driveway after the 
birds alerted me to its presence.They are particularly interesting in 
that their coat color changes with the seasons.
