Beaver at the Beaver Marsh
Today the plan was to get to the Beaver Marsh before dawn.  We did it!   We left about 5:15 and arrived at 6:00.  It was, as always, very scenic, especially with the mist floating on the marsh.  But Kay made the find of the morning.  She spotted a beaver in a little clearing right next to the water.  She called me over and we watched and snapped away.  It was still so dark that our photos aren't the greatest.  Anyway, the one beaver turned into 2, then 3, and then for a minute, there were four.  It was a spectacular sight to see even if we didn't get great photos.  After all, why does one go to the Beaver Marsh if not to see the beaver?
