eager beaver
An industrious beaver was busy early this morning carrying branches across a pond to its lodge. Primarily nocturnal, beavers are often difficult to find and photograph. The beaver population of North America was once more than 60 million but because of extensive hunting for its fur and glands their population is now about 90% less.
