We meet at the Ballpark in Gillies Bay at 10:00am
My photo this week was taken on our recent hike into Dragonfly Lake. The beaver dam is at the south end of the lake and I have never had a good look at it so I don't know if there is anything special about it. However, the beaver must be doing a good job of maintaining it as I noticed the water level had dropped very little after a long spell of quite dry weather. As we walked towards our lunch spot at the north end we passed betwen several fair sized trees that had been largely stripped of their bark as high as the beaver could reach. They had not attempted to fall any of the trees but they may well do so if they want to feed on the needles and bark of the smaller branches higher up.
