BEAVER

North Richland Hills, TX

I got my first shot of a beaver today within just a few blocks from the office. I knew there were coyotes and such but never thought a beaver would be living in the middle of the city! At first, I thought it was a nutria but then I saw his tail for a split second and it was definately a beaver! Just hanging out in a pond right behind an apartment complex! Who woulda thunk? Huh?

Definitely a beaver. A nutria does not have this wonderful style. Good catch.

Hooray for the beaver! We won't be seeing them for another month or so up north.

I wonder if the pond was made by his dam.
