Brick Works Beaver

This big beaver gave me a fright.  When I arrived at Evergreen Brick Works I headed to the first pond to peer over the railing into the water.  I saw lots of bubbles on the surface and thought: there must be some lungs under there.  Curiosity got the better of me and I leaned further over the railing.  As I did, the beaver suddenly surfaced.  We were eye to eye.  I gasped and the beaver quickly disappeared under water.  It later returned for a photo opportunity!
