Beaver watcher Jon Ridler stopped at the dam this morning. Apparently the beavers haven’t changed their clocks yet either. A parent was at the secondary dam, and a kit was beyond it, swimming up from the lower portion of the creek. Junior came back eventually, crossing over the secondary dam on the east side, (just like the whole family does for the main dam) and ate a tule. There was a loud adult tail slap warning of an unknown danger, and the family went back to the lodge together.
The moral of the story is that beavers are apparently feeding far downstream. Which might mean they are East Bay Regional Park’s beavers too. Interesting.
