daaaaaaaaaaam?!

check the teleport, neighbors.
my amateur naturalists and i got expert
in a swamp today:

that's right,
a giant stream-stoppin' animal-erected dam,
damning those downstream to a weak flow.
beavers, y'all.
elusive at the best of times,
literally, and metaphorically,
i can't seem to connect with those oily,
flat-A*ed, big, toothy waterbabies.
awwwwwwwwwwwwww, man.
however,
we saw some proof that as that old comparison goes,
those muthas get busy.
for really real, they doo-doo that, ninjas.

they also aren't afraid to chew it up:
deforesting the muddy marshes and gnawing
their way towards clearer skies and open spaces.

sometimes they get bored partway through, i guess.

other times, they just decorate, or snack,
or whatever the F* they do when we're not there
bothering them.
dang if that ain't some cartoon A* jauns, though ,yeah?
their fortress of waterside activation wasn't too b!tchlike, either:

c'mon.
that burly barbarian battlecastle was taller than me,
and you know i'm no minky midget or nothin'.
and on the ones, duders,
it's inhabited.
we got that footprint-style proof-

steppin' out on the banks an' that.
beavers, son.
nature wins,
and we're riding it's coattails to victory.
word up;
never quiet, never soft.....
