Very nice Harold, the rippling of the water really frames the beaver nicely. I also like the contrast to the stillness of the water outside of the rippling created by the beaver.
Nice detail again. The beaver is certainly hard working, which is why it's our national symbol, even if it is the second largest rodent in the world (the largest is the South American capybara).
They don't take many holidays, do they, Jane. Some might say they cut their teeth on felling trees.
