Welcome back to the site. Temperatures have dipped back into the freezing range and most standing water has at least a thin sheet of ice on it. While out shooting this morning at a nature preserve in Danbury I came upon 3 swans making a lot of noise, at first I gave it no mind. But the noise and splashing continued for a few minutes so I decided to investigate. Once I got closer I realized that 3 swans were swimming in the only unfrozen water on the whole pond. This open water just happened to be at the front door of a beaver lodge and he didn't seem to happy to have neighbors so close by. Over and over the swans would chase the beaver under and then the beaver would pop back up and slam his tail down on the water sending a huge splash up in the air trying to send the swans away. It was over in a few more minutes, the beaver went back to working on the lodge. Very fun to see interaction between two very different animals.
Art show will be installed on Monday January 5th...details to follow VERY shortly.
Cheers
Bill
