Update:
How tired are we? Well that was an event! 60 very enthusiastic third graders got a personal tour of the beaver dams, the tale of their history in Martinez and an introduction to how beavers build “animal neighborhoods”.
The sidewalk art was amazing, the questions and comments were delightful, the beavers were a big hit and the help was SUPER! Highlight of the day? Jon spotted an otter in the morning and a green heron in the afternoon. An unexpected surprise was a beautiful field mouse on the grass very unafraid and visible for the children, first sighting ever!
Hopefully they’ll be a nice write up in the record, there was a friendly reporter who loved the beavers and a photographer. We should have some photos soon, but if I were you I’d go see those chalk beavers now before they get smudged.
