  • Beavers, Birders and Conservationists: Working Dam Hard

    I’ve actually been holding on to these photos for about a month, and I guess I started thinking about them as I was contemplating the contents of my latest post.  And I will officially attribute the chosen theme to Pat Bumstead over at Bird Canada who made me laugh with a reply to my recent tweet concerning the final touches being put on the inaugural edition The Burrow Guardian (Burrowing Owl Conservation Network’s newsletter).

    @patbumstead   Good thing u have so much free time….-:)

    I do appreciate some good humor and great owl supporters!  Thus, with so many things that I need to get done over the Labor Day weekend for burrowing owls, Pat’s comment fresh on my mind, the incredible efforts of Heidi Perryman (and the rest of the crew) over at Worth A Dam to safeguard the urban beavers and garner approval for the installation of some beaver sculptures, and EVERYTHING else that I can’t even begin to name, I thought it most appropriate to share some beaver kit photos.  And they sure were busy that evening gathering willow.

    So here’s to all those busy birders, conservationists, and online buddies out there working to make a difference for wildlife.  Happy Labor Day y’all and enjoy the long weekend.

      And don’t crucify me for the title, it’s a double entendre… they’re beavers of course :’)
