TRACKS & TRAILS |
|
|
|
|
A well-used beaver trail
in the winter. There were numerous gnawed trees in the area.
|
|
|
|
 |
Beavers will usually keep a hole open in
the ice, so they can get out and feed on trees.
This is a beaver plunge hole.

Beaver activity in winter. It was very cold here.
The beaver accessed this area via the plunge hole in the above photo. |

Beaver tracks in the snow
(from the same beaver that made the features shown in the above two
photos). |

|
Beaver tracks in mud.
The prints aren't very distinct in this photo.
However, one is lucky to find beaver tracks at all, as their tail
usually drags over and obliterates their tracks. |
