My brother owns our old family property and said there is a beaver dam in the back that he wants to break up next spring so maybe I will go out with some kind of camouflage to cover me up and take some photos. Once they break up his house, he will have to swim out and run away. ha They won't hurt him, they just don't want him damming up the water on their property anymore.The Retired Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466803019073952351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-30963463719223710172009-11-21T00:00:12.966-05:002009-11-21T00:00:12.966-05:00I actually never saw the "otter" post ti...I actually never saw the "otter" post title, but I knew what your creature was immediately. It's good to finally see one though. I've been reading so much about otters and beavers, but I have only gotten a few small glimpses of either of them. The frozen foam and the little red squirrel are also wonderful pictures. The red squirrels really seem to like pine trees.Rick (Ratty)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04062449024949497557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-68228760738531635202009-11-20T23:18:44.739-05:002009-11-20T23:18:44.739-05:00Frozen foam looks so interesting and the playful s...Frozen foam looks so interesting and the playful squirrel shot is tooo good...<br /><br />My new blog on Fashion - <a href="http://www.thefashionpanache.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">FASHION PANACHE</a><br /><a href="http://flutteringandwandering.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">My Travelogue</a>, <a href="http://finessefelicity.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Savoir-Faire</a>Bhushavalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558027745101085778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-64740399392370703312009-11-20T22:23:36.658-05:002009-11-20T22:23:36.658-05:00Ashley: Thanks so much.

But I realized...Lorac: you were the first to guess.<br />But I realized that I had it labeled in my post labels, too.. duh. haaaaa<br />I like your blog, I just joined as a follower!<br /><br />Joannie: Good thing I don't do the riddles like you do in your blog, I would give them all away. I forgot all about that when I did the photo labels. ha Did I tell you I was blonde?<br /><br />Eva: Right you are, as the photo label said. ha<br /><br />Vickie: I didn't realize it when I posted, but I gave away the answer in my photo labels. It was an otter.<br /><br />Betsy: It was an otter...I accidently gave it away in my blogpost labels. ha<br /><br />Sue: You are most welcome for the seeds and thank you right back atcha! And the post was an otter, I accidently gave it away by naming it in my blogpost labels at the end of the blogpost.<br /><br />Wendy: Those patterns really were cool in person because they had an ice glace on them. Isn't it weird that they just froze in place? Just like Father Winter blew his ice breath on them and froze them instantly!<br /><br />Ed: Right you are...and I blew the contest because I put "otter photograph" in my blogpost labels at the end of the blogpost. Oh boy, I need practice at this contest thing. ha<br /><br />L.D.: It was an otter. I gave it away because I had "otter photograph" right on the end of my blog in the blog post labels. Sheesh, I am not very good at blog contests, now , am I? ha<br /><br />Insanity: Yep, someone else said that first. Boy, I am going to need a LOT more practice at this contest thing before I implement any of your ideas, aren't I? ha I must have been half asleep when I did the post not to catch that.<br /><br />Brian: Yep, I totally blew it when I put otter in the blogpost labels. Yikes, I am blonde for sure. haha<br /><br />grannyann: Nope, OTTER> ha<br /><br />Rainfield: I would have loved for it to be a monkey. (By the way, do they know how to swim?)<br /><br />Lucy and Dick: It was indeed an otter. We do have both here!!<br /><br />Sandy: It was an otter, and I accidently gave it away at the bottom of the post by putting the words "otter photograph" at the end of my blog post. Not too smart of me, was it? ha<br /><br />DVM's Wife: Yeah, well wasn't that smart of me? Yikes, maybe I did the post before I had my coffee today. ha I haven't gotten a picture of a beaver or a muskrat ye, either, but I hope to, someday!The Retired Onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02466803019073952351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-55685627600048695822009-11-19T20:55:27.042-05:002009-11-19T20:55:27.042-05:00And now as I am the last one who writes a comment ...And now as I am the last one who writes a comment here, I think it's a monkey....LOL...S-V-Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17448485127651242401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3803801517332763895.post-8508235454232955022009-11-19T20:26:31.469-05:002009-11-19T20:26:31.469-05:00Well your labels gave it away.......otter.
