the Beavers were out, we saw 2 babies and the one we think is the mom. The mom is the one snagging willow branches from where it hangs over the water. It would also appear the beavers really need a little teeth whitening.

Feeding Castor Canadensis
Saturday night, time to check out the beavers. Yep, its an exciting life we lead here in Colorado.It was essentially dark out for several of these pictures. I was really pushing the limits of my camera in many of these.
My first Beaver sighting
the Beaver is back in our favorite pond. We are pretty sure this is the male, and we did not see momma while we were there.
Feeding the Beaver
With the Williamson’s in town we took them downtown to see the beavers. The girls had a great time, and Lauren even got one to take a branch from her hands.
Sunday night Beaver show
we took a walk tonight downtown. The beavers were out, and according to Gordon (the old guy who keeps an eye on them) there are now 9 in the pond. One of last years babies built a house downstream. the house was washed out in a recent storm, so a couple nights ago she moved back in with two of her own babies. Mom and Dad beaver had already gone over the hill and into the creek when we got there. He’s probably looking for some trees so he can build an addition.
Nice Beaver!
Monday night walking the dogs at Monument Valley Park. After the sun had gone down we were headed back towards the car. Much to our surprise we saw a pair of beavers in the pond. There was a neat old guy named Gordon there feeding them fresh tree branches. He says the pair has been there for about 9 years. The amount of wildlife right under our noses in this city never ceases to amaze me. I should also add that these were shot after sunset. I was up to 1250 and 1600 iso, and shooting with a slow a shutter speed as I could.
