A storm was rolling in, so you will see the occasional flash of lightning in the distance, and hear the sound of rumbling thunder as the storm got closer. I would have liked to stay and try to get some footage of the beaver when the storm hit, but my wife makes me come home when there is lightning in the area.  | Mike’s photos and videos of beavers | Facebook
