New Neighbors - Beavers

In less than a week they built a couple of dams. One just upstream of my bridge.It has raised the water level by over a foot and I don't know how high they are intending to make it. I have named the new lake after Shelley using her middle name. Lake Hope.

Adding more picures Just keep scrolling -will convert to a table one of these days but until then...

This was March.

This was early June -it continues to grow

Below - water level down in July but dam is higher.

Below In September note that the water is higher than the bridge. Shelley's feet are up because the chair is sitting in running water.

More will be flooded and gnawed we are sure. I hope we can get to know these critters some though they are quite shy. Stay Tuned .
