Beaver / ビーバー Nov. 22

Oh my my my... it snowed so much yesterday!

When we took a walk in the morning, it was almost a blizzard.

昨日の朝はすごかった〜！

めちゃめちゃ雪降ってるの中のお散歩。

Kaiya

The advantage of this kind of weather is that almost no one is walking.  I let Kaiya off the leash and she surely enjoyed the walk ;)

そのおかげであんまり人が歩いてないから　Kaiyaはノーリードで(^ ^)

We all love snow but you see...we all got covered in white!!!

もうね　ほんとね　みんなで　真っ白になったよ！

Mato

Kaiya

We weren't the only ones...the geese were covered in snow, too!

湖に浮かんでた　鳥さんたちも　背中真っ白！

Suddenly, Moto jumped into the bush.

急にMatoがこの場所に突入。

Mato

It's usually rats so I was looking at the water surface because sometimes they swim.  I realized something was swimming beneath it.

A while later it came up and showed us himself... no, it wasn't a rat.

It was a beaver!!!

I've seen a beaver before somewhere else but I didn't know they live in the neighbor!!

Sorry, Mato bothered you ;p

あぁ〜　ネズミでもいたかなぁ〜って水面を見てたら　水面下をなんか泳いでるのが見えた。

暫くしたら浮いて来て・・・あ！！！　ビーバーだ！！！！！

前にビーバー別の場所で見たことあったけど　近所で生息してるとは・・・。

Matoが邪魔してごめんね〜(^^;)

When it snows this much, it's so easy to clean Kaiya and Mato after the walk.  Just wipe their paws with a towel and that's it.  I love it!

こんなに雪が積もってくれると　散歩のあとにKaiyaとMatoを綺麗にするのがめっちゃ楽チーン( ´ ▽ ` ) タオルでチョチョっと足拭くだけだもんねぇ〜。

Kaiya

But it rained today...actually it's still raining.

I guess the temperature went up and it rained instead of snow.  Everything melted.  Wet and muddy.

Unfortunately we gotta clean Kaiya and Mato in the shower...more work :(

I wonder what's gonna be tomorrow.

なのに　今日は雨だよ。

昨日より全然気温が上がって　雨が降って地面はびちょびちょで雪はほとんど溶けちゃった〜！

KaiyaとMatoさんは　残念ながら散歩後はシャワーで汚れを流しまぁす。

さてさて　明日はどんな天気になることやら。
