ABOVE: A juvenile beaver eats the flower from the spatterdock (cow lily) that grows in the lake. NEAR RIGHT: Aerial view of the oldest beaver lodge on the lake shows the radiating " beaver highways " where the beavers create a path through the water shield. FAR RIGHT: A close-up, ground-level view of the same beaver lodge as the aerial to the left. The lighter yellowish limbs and branches are freshly added and mean the lodge is still in use. 58 BLUERIDGECOUNTRY.COMhttp://www.BLUERIDGECOUNTRY.COM
