Beaver Hunt

While having lunch out on the lawn today, Dave spotted a beaver swimming along. We spent a bit of time chasing him around... in and around the bushes… underneath the docks… it was fun. Here's some pictures of us beaver 'hunting'.


I didn’t notice the classic paddle-type beaver tail. It looked more like a possum tail, but based on this creature’s interest with the not-quite-blooming bushes and stick collection, we decided it was a beaver. He was a lot smaller than I had expected, but I think that makes him pretty cool.

You can see him pretty well in some of the pictures. I've seen ducks, swans and a blue herring, but never a beaver. We both thought it was pretty cool.
