Life is a balancing act.....


As I explored Great Falls Park I found that there was a lot of flooding. Along the shore of the Potomac River the flooding was up ten feet or more. Many areas of the park were roped off because of the flooding. I was taking pictures of some of the floodlands when I happened upon these three creatures. The pair of ducks seemed quite happy, the poor beaver not as much. He seemed to be hanging on for dear life. I did not see any trace of his dam here. Further down stream was a swirling mass of logs...
