7 Trees and Counting...

Well, the beavers have been hard at work and we have been suffering the consequences. They have downed 5 trees and damaged 2! Our landscape has offically been alterd from these large rodents. After 6 people from the Town of Matthews came out to assess the DAMage they returned a week later with a backhoe to dig out the dam. Since then, we have witnessed more "eager-beaver" work as they have begun to repair their home. We're hoping that we don't have to take even more drastic measures.....although I would call a backhoe pretty drastic!

The tree stump at the bottom right corner in the picture below is the first downed tree by the beavers. This tree broke our fence and fell way into our yard.

Kayna on the lookout! It was 9am so she was still in her PJ's
