Because the beaver isn't just an animal; it's an ecosystem!

{column2} Remember our beaver-friend Ian Timothy of Kentucky? He made these excellent stop motion films about “beaver creek” using clay and every ounce of patience he had. At the time he launched the first one he was just 13. Then he went on to win the AT&T science challenge with a great project teaching about beavers. Last summer I wrote this:

He’s the remarkable 13 year old (now a whopping 14) who started the claymation series “Beaver Creek” episode I of which he has already sold to a text book company in Canada! His introductory science lesson on beavers won the AT&T Science Challenge at the Louiseville Science Center.

Well it looks like ALL THREE parts won a Gold Key in the regional scholastic competition, and will now go to  New York for consideration in the national prize.

This is a huge opportunity for Ian as the prize includes recognition, scholarships and exhibition. I can’t imagine what his resume is going to look like when he graduates. {/column2} You can leave words of encouragement on Youtube or Facebook, and spread the word to friends. Ian is a powerful talent, but also a talent who cares about beavers. Remember, too that this is still only his Freshman Year of Highschool. I can’t wait to see what he’ll do next.

Weather Watch:

Jon says the dissent in the weather community has moved into assent and things are looking more and more windy and damp. He is still primarily concerned about the the rain later in the week. There is a reasonable chance that the worst of it will push South and bother Santa Cruz instead. Looks like washouts for the Los Gatos Creek beavers too. Sorry Mercury.
