    What a fun and educational lens! I've always been fascinated by beavers. I probably would have been a mountain man, if I'd been born a 130 years earlier! ;-)

    Beavers Suk~ They mess up woods and farm land with flooding and kill trees that protect shoreline errosion!

    You know the beaver is Canada's numero uno animal! I'm just glad they didn't put it on our flag.

    it's great to "use" beavers to talk also about water. It's a precious resource, and it's important to let children understand how animals use it (also changing the landscape!)

    Really interesting lens! Thumbs up.

    I don't know about the kids but I love this lens. Here in the UK beavers were extinct until recently when they are being reintroduced.
    Angel blessed.

    Evelyn you are inspirational! I saw a beaver dam once when I was horseriding in Washington state but sadly it was abandoned. I would love to see them in the wild. I believe they may be being reintroduced into the wild in the UK.

    Lensrolled to my wild life lens and blessings to you!

    As usual, a brilliant unit study! 5* and a Featured Lens in the newly redesigned Homeschooling Group (under new management)!

    This is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in or teaching children about beavers. It shows a lot of work. It also ought to show some of the reasons many of us like homeschooling.

    We also love reading the Thornton Burgess book online. Thank you for reminding me to add a link.

    Very nice! We are big fans of Thronton Burgess books. They are in the public domain, you know, and can be accessed for free at many sites. Our favorite is the Baldwin Project.

    Our 6 y/o granddaughter will love this. She is totally enjoying learning about all animals right now. We will read this one together. Thank you!

    Great learning tool you've created. I spend a lot of time in the woods and come across the work of beavers all the time. It is amazing how busy they are. We use beaver dams as bridges. We fish over beaver dens.
  • naturegirl7 Oct 26, 2008 @ 3:49 pm | delete
    Great lens. I'm lensrolling it to Creatures of the night. Welcome to the Naturally Native Squids group. Don't forget to add your lens links to the appropriate plexos and vote for them.
  • groovyoldlady Oct 21, 2008 @ 10:52 am | delete
    Ya know...The only place I've ever actually seen a Beaver dam was IN Missouri. I know we have 'em in Maine, but the woods are so thick we rarely get into good beaver observation areas.
  • The_Homeopath Oct 14, 2008 @ 7:35 pm | delete
    For several years I conducted beaver hikes up near Mt. Evans for 6th graders. I love these guys, especially when all of a sudden we'd here a SLAP as their tails hit the water when they took a dive.

    Cute stuff as always:)
  • Eevee Aug 22, 2008 @ 11:54 am | delete
    Beavers are one of my favorite rodents after hamsters.

    Paddy the Beaver was one of my favorite books.
