A young beaver goes for a dip in the Ottawa River one freezing January afternoon. Its colony was nearby on the shores resting. The beaver was unbothered by my presence and just kept an eye on me. I initially didn't realize it was there until I heard a chomping noise on some dried grass and there it was at my feet in the water.
