Looks like our beavers have been busy. There were felled or nearly felled trees in the creek by the parkinglot behind Bulldog BBQ. The large tree there had never been wrapped, but “leaned the wrong way” so the beavers chose to leave it alone. Last night they threw caution to the wind and let it fall. Jon and Moses pulled and cut the tree off the fence and let the pieces fall on the creek. Sadly one of our newly planted trees was in its path, but the beavers will have a happy feast tonight.
Considering the “unideal” specs of this tree, it was possibly felled by a yearling. At anyrate, the whole fam-damily should be out tonight to enjoy their labors so you might want to stop by with a flashlight.
Hopefully they’ll eat fast before city staff comes on monday and says the fallen trees are a flood hazard and takes them away. They have two nights, I think our beavers can manage.
