Description
On a relatively warm February day a beaver rests on the bank of Ohio’s CVNP Beaver Marsh. The weather has been moderating lately and the ice on the marsh is now soft and thin, allowing him to swim underneath it and break through anywhere he chooses. Small pieces of ice are scattered about on the surface from when he just came ashore.
A minute or two after this photo was taken, he slipped back into the water and moved on, clearly visible as a large dark shape speeding along under the ice.
The Beaver Marsh is part of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Ohio on land reclaimed from industrial use and allowed to return to nature.
