Can you find the beaver in the above photo?

Whereabouts do you live? It’s so beautiful.
North of Albuquerque by the Rio Grande.
And wowls…. Lovely pic of the doves and grosbeak.
Thanks, Shey.
I greatly enjoyed the owl series and the killdeer series.
The Killdeer doesn’t seem to have much fear. I guess if they kill deer, he could hold his own against a pesky paparazzo. Thanks, Liz.
You’re welcome, Tim.
Great variety Tim.
Thanks, Brad.
That little owlet looked like an Ewok from Star Wars. So cute!!!!!
Owlets do look like aliens. Thanks, Jen.
Cats, birds a turtle, a beaver, I mean, what’s not to love?
Lots of critters to love. Thanks, Gigi.
In a river like the Rio Grande, shallow and too big to put in a dike and a lodge, do beavers live in mud burrows on the riverbanks?
Yes, they do. They build dams in the Clearwater Ditch when it has water, but the river is running so low that the Clearwater Ditch is almost dry. The green mud puddle I call “Notre Pond” with the snapping turtles is behind a beaver dam in the Clearwater Ditch. Thanks, Joe.
Your photos are a wonderful start to the day, Tim. I think I see the beaver on the bank.
We have killdeer up here too. Some years they have attempted to nest in the gravel driveway, but have usually abandoned the eggs.
Not a good place to nest. Thanks, Lavinia.
Beautiful photos!! 📸💕
Thanks, Samantha.
Stunning!
Thanks, Dawn.
Beaver found and nature shots much appreciated. Thanks Tim! xx
