The PigPen's Resplendent Kaffeeklatsch

[Luckieman]

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't idolise beavers. They're trying to (supposedly re-)introduce them into the wild here in England. I don't think they have a clue.

Ugh, so destructive, that’s why they don’t let us relocate them.  Anyway, all the years I’ve lived here they’ve lived in their own houses way down the end of the lake where there are no houses, occasionally showing up and taking some trees. Two years ago they must have kicked one out and he moved into my neighbor’s stone wall. Then under my deck, we could hear him gnawing. We got rid of him with a radio playing 24/7 but last spring he returned with a wife and babes. She wasn’t happy when we opened it up so they moved. Now back. ugh
From the rondelet practice thread:

Two Time Loser

He’s evicted
from his beaver lodge, rejected.
He’s evicted,
where he’d move was unpredicted.
Under deckboards trash collected
next his gnawing sound detected-
he’s evicted.

 That's nice, but I read 'rodent' instead of ' rondelet' in your intro!
