In this video from Sunday evening, I filmed a beaver swimming past me to join his family for dinner. The Saskatoon Cityscape adds a nice backdrop as he heads by me (well, technically he swam by “us”, because this was the night my friends from Spain were with me). #saskatoon #beavers | Mike’s photos and videos of beavers

The front feet stay tucked up, the webbed hind feet provide propulsion, and the tail acts as a rudder. Only a small part of the beaver is above water as it swims, which is why people are often surprised at their size when they see a beaver out of water. | Mike’s photos and videos of beavers | Facebook
