Happy Trails

We got out for a nice hike in the marsh and were surprised to see lot's of Beaver activity.

Besides the softer woods like alder and swamp maple they were trying their teeth out on some oak's.

Notice the protective wire mesh that was suposed to keep them from girdling a tree like this.

They have their lodges built up and supplies laid in for winter.

Looks like a beautiful and interesting walk! Glad you were able to enjoy the outdoors before "real" winter sets in.

The beavers are making furniture out of the oak and I want to know why the surface odf the water seems so still and glassy...

Almost like it's frozen!

Someone better use stronger wire next time. Thanks for the pictures.
