Open water tells a tale.

This open run water running over the dam "tells the tale"of an active Beaver presence.  This photo was taken South of Ino WI.

This open water is connecting the Long Bridge and Short Bridge. This meeting of the waters of the two bridges "tells the tale" of  ice out in Chequamegon Bay. It is said that two weeks after the waters from Long Bridge and Short Bridge meet in the spring the ice will be out in 2 weeks. If true that would be by April 2nd this year. 

Rising waters. Nature's engineers. It ain't Hoover but it works.

 Nature's dam.

 Beaver den.

 Dammed up waters. The den and dam are to the left in this photo.

 Hard to believe.

 Even harder to believe.
