I’m truly sorry man’s dominion
Has broken Nature’s social union,
An’ justifies that ill opinion
Which makes thee startle
At me, thy poor, earth born companion
An’ fellow mortal!

I thought Scottish beavers needed some Burns. This is a poem to a mouse but I bet he would have written it to a beaver if they hadn’t hunted them all. Thanks to our brave souls who heeded the cry for volunteers yesterday. It’s going to be a lot of fun. There’s still room for more, so if your resolution to 2009 is “Help Beavers More” (and whose isn’t?) drop us an email and join the party.
