We hadn't seen this guy all winter, but the pond has thawed (though we got some more snow over the weekend) and our resident beaver was out and about. He didn't look any leaner, but he certainly seemed hungry as he had no problems with me moving around on the opposite bank of the pond to get into a better shooting position. I sat with him for about 20 minutes watching him eat.

Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Sigma 150-500mm f/5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM at 500mm, 1/250 sec at f/6.3. OS Mode 1. ISO 2500. RAW conversion and cropped/rotated in Adobe Camera Raw.

Hopefully I can keep posting regularly (though right now, it seems processing photos is an additional hurdle that might delay posts).

Stay tuned.
