Title: Young Beaver at Sam Smith
Post by: Brian Bailey on July 22, 2009, 10:18:36 PM

Yesterday evening while walking at Sam Smith Park, we saw an adult beaver swimming with a young one.  It was the first time I've seen young beavers this year.  It was about half the size of the adult.

Also spotted a pair of Mink along the outer shore.

this evening my husband and i spotted three adult beavers, and 4 young beavers. we're not sure if it's all the same family, it seemed two young beavers hung around one very patient mama, and the other two hung around a very NOT patient mama. the male was seen on his own.

we also saw one mink along the shoreline, as well as the usual evening birds.

i will be posting videos later on tonight :)
