Animals, trees beaver 2 Comments
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.

Fractals are geometric patterns that are repeated at ever smaller scales to produce irregular shapes and surfaces that cannot be represented by classical geometry. The branching of a tree is a pretty good example. The term was coined by Benoit Mandelbrot in 1975. He developed some special mathematic models to represent these patterns. Fractals can be seen in nature in things such as snowflakes and river systems or chemical compounds. They can be quite lovely when represented in art.
