and no beaver eats it, does it still taste delicious?
:
This was the cottonwood the beavers felled Tuesday night. It is the last large cottonwood before the train tracks. Our beavers seem to choose cottonwood first for dam builiding, probably because it is soft and easier to get larger volunteers. Our display chews at the Worth A Dam tables are all cottonwood. With the third dam still in its early stages, I expected a flurry of beaver activity last night as they hastened to make use of this attractive offering. I scuttled out of bed in the morning excited to see the unfolding efforts. I found very little changed.
I guess the beaver timetable looks nothing like the human one. The trees down, exactly where they planned it to be. They’ll get to it when they’re good and ready. In the meantime, it ain’t going anywhere.
