It was a crisp, cold night out at the beaver lodge. The kits were cruising back and forth and in and out of the lodge. There was sure a lot of whining when coming from the den that would get louder whenever a kit would enter it. They even used their old exposed entrance One little guy had a mouthfull of mud he brought back with him.
Raccoons were taking advantage of the lowered water and feeding near the beavers.One of the adults was floating around in the annex patrolling the pond it seemed. A minute later we hear a loud whap!. Then a second tail slap. I guess the racoons got the message because we could see them heading under the street to go upstream.
