what are the odds...I don't think a beaver would eat the horrible taste of a Pelican plastic box...!! Hah...!

ok, so I have to ask, did you get a pic of him sawing it down?

Be interesting to see what happens also.

From the looks of it the beaver might just wait till the wind blows it over, I do have pics of a beaver chewing on a tree that was almost ready to fall, but it finally blew over in the wind.

Sure did Bones, but he ended up walking away from it and it's still standing today.

Welcome back Cliff :awesome

Well that's exactly what happened, Cliff. Have a look at the collage of me setting it up, the Beaver returns and it eventually falls. The last pic shows how close it came to crushing my poor camera. Mind you, I did have a good long look at that tree before I decided as to where to place the cam. After all said and done regardless of how long I studied that tree, I got plain lucky.

Great photos,...notice the tree was leaning toward the open area by the water, almost every tree I've seen fell by a beaver went toward the creek or pond. So I was sure the camera was safe, but that was a close call for sure. Well done, always good to get the pictures the way you set the camera up.

Thanks for the welcome back, been very tough for me the last 3 to 4 years and just need to get out in the woods for some long hikes.

You must be a survivor then Cliff. No better remedy for rejuvenating your soul than being alone to gather your thoughts in the great outdoors. Hang in there, live one day at a time and live those days to the fullest.
