A Beaver building his den

While canoeing we spotted this beaver busy at work bringing tree branches into his den.

Thanks so much for your lovely comments and favs on my sunset shot from yesterday!

Great capture! It's very hard to photograph beavers.

[Milanie]

Looks like he's got a pretty good start on his dam! It's surprising how quickly they can create one. Busy little beaver!

I"ve never seen a beaver - so good for you showing one today!

[Lois]

cute shot!

Well spotted and captured.

Terrific capture -- I keep hoping to see these on Beaver Island but have literally seen NONE in 25 years of trying! I see their dams, and the result of damage to trees, but never a single one. Love this image!
