About
You Otter Be in Pictures
Five Rivers is not limited to waterfowl. River otters, foxes, weasels,
muskrat. beavers, and mink also enjoy the al fresco environment.
Sitting quietly
with binoculars
and/or cameras
at hand, you may
have to wait for
them to appear,
but it will be
worth it. Lower
your blood
pressure without
pharmaceutical
intervention,
Ignore the slings
and arrows of political diatribes on the internet. No WiFi to tempt
you to connect to the digital world, you might even make eye
contact with your companion. But whisper low, those flat surfaces
of Five Rivers’ myriad ponds carry the sound for miles.
There is a beaver lodge at
Beaver Tree Pond, but watch
for muskrat on the edge of
Goose Pond or Sunfish Pond.
And lest we forget, there are
raccoons out there too.
