Click on the Keyhole to be taken to the Scottish National Heritage Webpage, home of the famed beaver trial. This is such a fun, interactive and educational beaver introduction I almost feel jealous, although I can’t imagine our well-appreciated charm bracelet activity didn’t spark some ideas along the way. Make sure you pay attention as you go through the entrance though, because it only does it the first time you visit. You will have to delete your temporary files to get it to play again. It’s a nice introduction to a pretty complex concept, well done team beaver! I wish they specifically mentioned salmon, since that’s what all their anglers are afraid of – maybe showed a picture of one leaping over a dam – but that’s just me.
Excellent beaver festival IV planning meeting last night. This year may well be the best ever, which is good because rumor is that beaver experts from at least three states are planning to visit and get ideas for how to launch a festival of their very own in their communities.
