The Rat Reappeared.

I woke up around 4am and it was clear again so I went down to the lake to look for some more meteors, to the same spot where I saw the rat last time. As I waited something small was moving next to the water toward me and stopped just a foot away. I could make out it was the rat again coming from the opposite direction (i.e. the direction it was heading for during the rain shower). I moved my hand and it took off back where it came from; so I suspect there is a nest in that direction. Then I saw a very bright meteor heading toward the sunrise just before I left.
