North American Beaver

Castor canadensis

Description:

You have heard the expression: "as busy as a beaver." Well, this not so little fella has been busy for two days now on these two huge Aspen trees. He must have delusions of grandeur or those branches up high look really inviting to him and he wants to get after them. Not afraid either, lots of people have been photographing him.

Great capture; it would be interesting to know how long it takes him/her to fell the trees!
