Don't ever think I have seen one of these guys, either! In cartoons, maybe.... How long does it take them to bring a tree down? And, then, what? What a great capture! And, yes, it's quite a departure for you!
Wow! What a photo opportunity! I'm thrilled if I see a beaver dam. I'd be shaking with excitement over spotting one in action like this. Great job capturing the hard-work rodent.
@sueb47 hi Sue... i was using a 16-55... this was taken at about 45mm i think... it's cropped in a bit, but not hugely... i was able to get quite close to him... maybe 6 -10 feet away?
This is an amazing shot. Where I live, in Oregon (the Beaver state), everything is named Beaver this and beaver that. I have never seen one, and nobody I know has ever seen one either as they are threatened by habitat loss. Fantastic shot!
Gosh, how did you get this? Incredible ! Totally amazing. Pretty soon you'll have your own TV channel "Exploring Nature, One Shot at a Time" Big huge FAV
I did a double take too, as this is so not what you normally do. Wonderful capture of this beast in full action - and they way he is looking at you is incredible! Fav.
Hilarious and wow for the great wild animal capture. That is amazing. Congrats on the TT, sorry I missed this earlier. My job and family sometimes get in the way of my 365 project. :) Glad this made the TT so I could see it!!
That being said, this is an awesome nature shot! How neat to catch him in action cutting down a tree! I'm going to have to Fav this!
Was this in Toronto??
