You see a lot of beaver in the northern half of the province because the northern half of the province has trees. This was near Lindale, Alberta. The water is a little high and flowing right over the top of the beaver dam. I would have loved to get closer. The ground is very wet and spongy. I have walked on a few dams. This one does not look that sturdy yet.
Neat..those beavers must have been as busy as..beavers!
ReplyDeleteBeaver dams are interesting, thanks for the pics!
ReplyDeleteI've breached a few beaver dams so salmon could pass to spawn, but usually they rebuild it before I'm back in a week. I discovered later, that salmon can literally squirm/climb over a beaver dam anyway, so I quit doing that.
ReplyDeleteMy uncle used to have to break them up as part of his job with the county. They are bad for damming culverts which damages roads.
