Morning Hike In The Woods

[The_Caper]

Went out about 2 1/2 hours ago and shot a mix. The light was good to start then clouded over early. Hope you enjoy and thanks for looking.

1. Male Mallard

2. A Doe that obviously keeps well fed.

3. A critter that looks like a lurking Croc in the everglades. He was none to happy when I stumbled upon him.

4. Some woody woodpeckers. Too bad the tree got in the way in the foreground.

5. Another shot of a Mallard. I slightly different view.

Is the third one a beaver? Can't see his tail, so it's hard to tell...
Or a muskrat, I guess.

I am pretty sure it's a great Canadian beaver. But honestly Im not to sure either.

Very cool! Where did you take these? I go often to the upper canada bird sanctuary http://www.parks.on.ca/ucbirds/home.htm hoping to see beavers and such! Last time I saw one, but from quite far, and he dissapeared pretty quick.
