Beaver Weather Vane

Beavers are semi-aquatic
rodents native to North America and Europe. They are the only living members of
the family Castoridae, which contains a single genus, Castor.
Genetic research has shown the European and North American beaver populations to
be distinct species and that hybridization is unlikely.
Beavers are best known for their
natural trait of building dams in rivers and streams, and building their homes
(known as beaver lodges) in the resulting pond. They are the
second-largest rodent in the world (after the capybara)
They are also known for their
"danger signal": when startled or frightened, a swimming beaver will rapidly
dive while forcefully slapping the water with its broad tail. This creates a
loud 'slap', audible over large distances above and below water. This noise
serves as a warning to other beavers in the area. Once a beaver has made this
danger signal, all nearby beavers will dive and may not reemerge for some time.
