Specific Removing plant (leaves) from photo

[nantrax]

Hello everyone,

I was able to take a pic of a muskrat, of course he was "hiding" behind some water plants (leaves).

I know it's a big ask. It's a special pic for me if we can see the entire face.

Thank you for the free edit as always.

Removed distractions and added a bit of a curves adjustment...
