A Beaver on the pond

 The shawn through a tiny hole in the clouds onto these Popular trees and the old railroad trestle footings

I was watching the Mallards trying not to take yet another picture of them.  I saw a wake that could not have been a duck  ... it was the Beaver.  I have seen signs of this guy all summer, but this is the first look I have had.  Of course it was too dark so I only had a short lens and couldn't get a good picture but he was great to see
