This past Autumn someone posted on social media that a beaver was working at felling a tree at the Vernon Post office. That report caused quite a ruckus among residents who were very attached to the three maples between the parking lot and the pond. I had heard recently that the beaver had been dispatched, so I took a moment to take a look around and see if I could spot any beaver activity. While I didn't see any signs of recent activity around the lodge, I thought I would post a few pictures anyway of Vernon's unwelcomed resident. - Norma Manning
