Signs of a Beaver

Cinnamon and I went to the back 40. Roaring across the yard towards me, he had to stop for a pee!

We checked out the owl tree, no owl. He kept yelling at me to follow him around the wetland shoreline. OK, must be important. Look what I found, lots of evidence of a beaver. It wasn't recent, I don't think. The wood chips weren't that bright, newly chipped colour, but darker. I wonder if this happened in the spring...  


At this point in the year, the water is really low, the frogbit sits in the deepest part. There is no way a beaver could survive this over winter. 












Signs of miniFred! 
Meanwhile, back at the house, Sept. 5th, miniFred had some grooming to do. She isn't waking up until the afternoon, I guess she'll hibernate there.
