The Mother of All Beavers

Filed under: Sights, Sounds and Observations! — Sally at 4:02 pm on Monday, August 1, 2005

Excerpt from the Sunny Rock B&B Observation Journal: What kind of animal does a kid from New York City usually see? The rat is the best answer. So it is good to come to Sunny Rock to see another rodent; the Beaver, nature’s engineer, symbol of the engineering society.

What a porker! Sighting occured at 17:30 p.m. of a 250 kg beaver (it would make for a great coat for Paris Hilton) feeding off the rapids.

The best time to see this creature chow down is approximately 17:30-18:30 US Naval Observatory Time.

A second sighting of a slightly smaller beaver, 150-175kg, occured around 1800. He was struggling with a large stick and was swimming towards his house.
