I’m just amazed at the lumberjack skills of these creatures. I’d like to get a shot of one in the daytime, but they are quite shy. I think someone is coming to this site and cutting up the larger logs felled by the beavers and using it for firewood. Beavers seem to just use the smaller limbs for their homes.

You must be right, Frank, the beavers wouldn’t be carrying off the larger stumps. They’ll only be using the branches for construction and eating the leaves and buds. I can, however, also appreciate the opportunity for those who heat with wood to take advantage of the “wind”falls. As Bill Staines wrote in his wonderful song, “All God’s critters got a place in the choir.”
