During my visit to the Laurentians, in the heart of the Alfred Kelly Reserve in Prévost, I had the chance to encounter a beaver enjoying a meal of water lily rhizomes in the calm waters of the lake. Wanting to avoid disturbing this peaceful scene, I lay flat on the ground, slowly inching closer to capture this rare moment. Through my lens, I was able to immortalize the beauty of this encounter, where the animal and its environment seemed to be one, bathed in the warm colors of autumn.

I filled my boots with ice-cold river water (twice) and lost a lens cap in the process of getting this photo, but it was all worth it. I never expected to be this close to this (or any) beaver, but since beavers don’t have great eyesight and this one was looking into the setting sun, I was able to approach slowly in the water completely undetected. It’s not often that you get to photograph wildlife at this kind of focal length (82mm), so this was a very special encounter.

I spend most of my time in the wood and I never seen a beaver from this close, you should see the video. I was fishing on a dam, he came from behind me and climbed on my tackle box, before going back in the water. The rain makes that picture one of my favorite even if it’s far from being an elusive animal. Afterward, he stayed very close and he peacefully closed his eyes for a few seconds. I could feel the trust he had in me.

Sometimes a casual sunset paddle boat ride around the lake is exactly what you need, but always make sure to have your camera! The western most region of Sheridan lake ends in a swampy marsh, abundant with lily pads, driftwood, cat tails and this beaver dam. I don't know if it is still in use by the beavers, but that evening it was certainly being occupied by this Mule deer fawn! I'm not sure what the fawn was actually doing out in the open on the dam, as there isn't any food for it and it was obviously quite exposed. Perhaps just taking in the sunset like the rest of us?

While birding along a busy cement path a Beaver came waddling out from the woods (near Lake Ontario) and wandered right across a cement picnic area and back into the woods. There was a family eating who didn't even realize it was there until I pointed it out. They were newer to Canada and were trilled to see one.

I had been photographing a beaver grooming itself on the shore of our lake, when it suddenly decided to slip in the water. It kept a wary eye on me, as it swam by my kayak. Beavers are tricky to photograph. They swim fast, will often dive with an angry slap of their tail, and their fur - when wet - is often too shiny to photograph well in the sun. This time, I "caught" one in perfect light.

Each time this beaver dove underwater we would sprint forward and lay down in the mud until we reached the waters edge before it re-emerged. Staying still and watching carefully we were able to get a very close look as it went about the business of monitoring its territory and collecting food to build its winter cache.

This is one of those unexplainable interactions with wildlife that leaves you feeling fantastic and wondering if that really just happened. I was watching two beavers on the marsh on my lakefront property when one of the beavers started to come closer and closer. I kept moving so it would see that I was standing there. It ended up diving for roots and would bring and eat them right beside me. Only two feet away. We spent the whole afternoon together and part of the evening. It was an amazing experience that I will always remember.

I was out on my nature adventures as usual, and I was lucky to see this Canadian Beaver chomping on some wood during late fall into winter after it just freshly snowed, as you can see the thin layer of snow and the water had a thin layer of ice. The beaver made a unique dam too. I like to try to capture everything and a story with my photography. I know I am not a a professional and I'm always eager to grow & learn more.

It was a cool summer evening and we were walking the pathways in search of the various birds that call Weaselhead Flats home. As we crossed the bridge a brisk movement caught me eye and I watched a beaver quickly dive below the surface of the water. As I moved around the side of the bank, a second fella came out to see what I was up to. I held back as we locked eyes and in just a few brief seconds I seemed to pass his analysis. He turned around, ripped a large low hanging branch from a tree and drug it to the waters edge. Like corn on a cob, he plucked every leafy kernel clean in record time.

I have lost count how many times I have tried to photograph this location. For nearly two years luck was never on my side. Each time I set aside some time to stop here the clouds would completely cover Mount Kidd in the background. I don’t know why, but without fail if I drove ten minutes down the road it would be sunny and clear every time. I knew this photo would never be my best work, but for me there was something satisfying about finally capturing the photo I wanted with the added benefit of some smoke in the air from wild fires across B.C. to diffuse the direct sunlight.

The sky was cascaded by the quickly falling sun. The air was warm. In the bushes across the river from the dam, I waited – hoping I’d see them before dark. As my optimism began to fade with the light, I saw ripples break the glassy water. The ripples emanated upstream from a yet unknown source, but I knew it was them. The mother and kit I had been waiting for. They swam into the frame of my lens, and climbed up the bank. Cuddled in, the kit fed and reveled in its mother's tenacious grooming. The still water mirrored this beautiful moment, and I wondered if they were watching themselves too.

I couldn't work out why the sapling was defying nature and moving up against the current and then all came into view!

A beaver kit earnestly paddled back to the lodge with a weed in his teeth, amidst the distorted, colorful reflection of the trees and plants on the banks of its pond. I watched this one of a pair of kits for an hour as they carried on daily activities one morning in a pond on my woodlot.

Two beaver kits were exploring the banks of their pond on my woodlot. I caught this close-up using my Canon Powershot 50, of one just before it snipped off the wildflower and swam back to their lodge with it. Besides the facial appearance I was struck by the kit's front foot claws.

I spotted this beaver, when it was sitting near the bank on the distance of several meters from me, cranching by teeth and feasting on leaves and stems. I had "wrong" camera and "wrong" (macro) lens, but took several shots.

I was trying to capture a waterfall picture and this beautiful beaver comes across the paved highway and heads into the water. It swam up the stream of water and passed right beside us.

It is a real shame that these great Canadian Icons continue to be hunted, snared and trapped. It is such a rarity to even see one. I was fortunate enough to come upon this very thin lone wolf checking out a beaver home last March and was able to take several photos without it ever knowing I was there. What a great thrill.

We have a beaver pond close to our home and the two adult beavers are quite used to my visits allowing me some close photography although the light was getting low.

This beaver picture was taken February 24/2013. This beaver was gathering willows from the ditch. Maybe they are running out of food. Or is spring coming soon?

I was hoping to get a photo of a moose on this early fall morning from my canoe. When nothing showed and I started to leave I took one last look over my shoulder and saw this lovely back lit scene.

I quietly approached this pond and found this single, very thin wolf checking out the beaver home. I had no tripod so had to lay down on the ground behind a rock and rest my camera with a 70-300mm lens on my camera bag to steady this shot.

Sleepy Beaver. While Fishing on the Nort Saskatchewan River, near a beaver lodge I typically visit, I found this big guy asleep on the mud sunning himself. I knew they were very comfortable with me being there, but this was still funny!

When I'm out on nature walks, I'm always seeing Beaver briefly and from a distance. When I was at the Toronto Zoo, the Beaver were very active. It was educational to see them up close; however, the lighting was low and it was difficult to get a sharp exposure. You can see that the fur is wet as well as some ice on the whiskers.

Was hiking a new area for me on a cold dreary day in late fall when I stumbled upon this beaver pond. I thought the dead trees and grass looked interesting in the flat light.

Nothing is more Canadian than a beaver, and when you get a chance to photograph one like this you just have to take it and share it!

The Humber River runs through the Greater Toronto Area, and part of it lies in back of us. I enjoy sitting by the river at the end of the day. One autumn evening, this beaver came swimming by at sunset, stopping to munch on grasses by the river's edge. I was lucky enough to be in the right spot at the right time to capture his portrait in action!

I was photographing with my Grampa in Algonquin and we stopped to photograph the beaver. There are many lakes in the park with lots of wildlife. Grampa told me to get low to take the picture.

I took the picture for a Science Fair project where I looked at changes in the beavers lodge and dams for three months. I think that the beaver wanted the dam to be more stable because we walked on it to get to the other side and to fix a little leak that was there the last time. I took it with my mom'd camera and zoomed in.

North American Beaver
Ron Sjollema
The Beaver. The second largest rodent in the world. The Northern American beaver population was once more than 60 million, but now not more than 12 million. Being hunted for fur and have the ability to flood waterways which interferes with other land uses does not help. But this beaver is doing his thing in a little stream close to our house. He is not bothering anybody. So the only thing this beaver has is being a photo opportunity for the guy with the camera.
