Last night was amazing as at least five beavers constantly prowled the pond for safety ostensibly to make sure they could let the kits out. Obviously it required the entire family for assurance patrol. Including last years kits, Dad, Mom, and uncle. It was an amazing display of the collective beaver family. They even patrolled “UNDER” the water! Watch this line of bubbles.
Everyone wanted in on the action. And I mean everyone.
After a crowded half hour if watching, and us chomping at the bit,, sure the kits were coming out any minute, Dad gave a tail slap under the bridge to something we couldn’t see. And the whole show was over. Over! The beavers took off one by one over the secondary dam. And we went dejectedly home.
Stay tuned! We’ll definitely be back! It will happen soon.
