Presquile Provincial Park -REVISITED

I posted this just over a year ago.    You may think why would you repost a winter post?  Well it snowed here two days last week so I thought hey why Not?     We did not get out to Presquile Provincial Park in March this year due to the quarantine and also all Ontario Provincial Parks are shut down.  I have not been off my property for a month now so haven’t been doing my photography or going anywhere.  I think we may go for a drive this week, the weather is a lot nicer than last week!

The day we went, which I write about below, was a great day.  I have seen lots of beavers in different places from land and in our canoe,  but none have I seen up close as I did this guy on this day.  Enjoy winter photos from Ontario Canada !

 

What a great day we had Saturday.  First, the weather was spectacular, I think it was only -8 celsius or thereabouts…………..the sky was so blue and the sun was shining.  Wonderful day to get up at 6 a.m. and go photographing !

Off we went, with coffee in hand, arriving at Presquile Provincial Park about 810 a.m.  Headed out on some trails and spotted this guy, or girl.  Apparently there are two adults and kits but we only saw one adult this day.

He was wandering around and chewing the bark off branches.  Breakfast time for beavers.  He was not bothered by us at all.  We kept our distance but he really didn’t care that we were there.

At one point, he went back down a hole to his house but came out again a little later.

Notice the left side of his tail, like something chewed it off

He looks like he’s plotting something

We didn’t just watch him, we headed out to other spots and took lots of photos.  Just a beautiful day, did I mention that?  Not a lot of people out which was odd…….I thought.

I saw someone else do this and I really thought it was cute so I’m copying !

We were there about 4 1/2 hours before we had to leave for Signal Brewery.  Can’t wait to go again !
