A very clean documentary image of what it is beavers do to trees, quite remarkable really. I always feel a bit torn when I see the damage they can do to a stand of trees almost overnight sometimes. It is their ecological role though and they do a lot of good too in terms of habitat creation. Speaking of picture, this is a bit of a stretch for the Wildlife Gallery. Obviously, it pertains to wildlife but generally the photo should show some "actual" wildlife. Perhaps a better fit for the Environmental PJ Gallery. Luckily I'm still in the giving spirit and the photo can stay, this time, unless you want to move it. :smile:
