Evidence of Beavers at Work

On November 16th.while pursuing a Ruffed Grouse we found this standing

 beaver-notched' ' gnawed'  tree and the beauty of  its balance and evenly gnawed

precision intrigued us.  We became Curious as to when the tree will fall we have driven to that location twice  since to check on it. 
The last time we checked it was still standing.  This morning we have to travel past that location again, and I shall do a follow up observation with my camera. I will be back  later this afternoon to report on the present status of the tree and the beaver's work.
