Land Beaver

I biked past two groundhogs today on my way back from campus along the river. Only one ran away. They are really so cute, and everywhere along the canal, river, and campus. I think of them as Land Beavers, without the tail. I think that the tail though is what truly makes the Beaver. Maybe I should just think of groundhogs as groundhogs and stop trying to tie them to our national animal.

That's so funny that you should write that! Before someone corrected me I whole-heartedly believed that groundhogs were beavers!!! I agree that they are tres cute! They brighten my day, especially last year when they had infested the residences.
