I was up early today the birds started singing at 4:30 this morning and it was a wonderful way to wake up. I posted to the blog and decided to go to Herricks cove. Walked out of the house and saw a Beaver, sitting on a tree that the beavers downed last fall. It heard me and disappeared under the water in an instant, got some image when it came up for air and I will post later. On the way to Herrick's cove I stopped at the Rockingham Country stores ponds and was very gald I did. There was a call coming from the Cattail swamp that I could not ID.
