The Beavers have returned!



I looked out of our dining room window and saw Lindley with his arm raised by the pond. I thought he was fishing, but it turned out he was trying to take a picture of a beaver with his camera phone.
He came up to the house to say a beaver was in the pond, swimming back and forth and slapping his tail about every lap to warn him away. I rushed down and took some photos and then discovered a second smaller beaver who soon disappeared beneath the rocks.
Have the moved back into the old place or are they seeking out other quarters. In any case, we were happy to have them back.
Back up at the house, someone/thing has been nibbling at our flowers.
