This was the scene this morning down on the farm.  The Beaver had rebuilt his rebuilt, rebuilt, rebuilt, rebuilt dam once again.  It is obvious by the size (only 1/3 the height of pipe) and would be back to finish the job tonight.  However, I dismantled this bad boy and got the water level down to a manageable stream again.

I made two more calls to the DWR and finally got hold of the person I needed to for a permit to trap him!  He’s MINE!

I’ll try it for a couple of days and if I don’t have success, I’ll turn the job over to Bones.  She has a trap that catches beavers overnight.

Wish me luck!  Remember the beavers of the past have all kicked my butt!
