Beaver Pond coloring page

 This is my free coloring pages blog.   

There are over 3000 drawings for you to print and color. 

Today's new drawing is of a Beaver Pond.

Beaver Pond with Beaver and Waterfowl

Beavers are the engineers and builders of the animal kingdom.  Granted some other animals build but beavers affect their whole environment.  When the wolves were reintroduced into Yellowstone National Park the lowered population of elk led to the beavers' return.  The beaver ponds provide habitat for amphibians, birds, and other mammals.   

The birds include waterfowl.  The drawing shows a swan, a male and female Mallard duck, and a pair of coots.  All of these birds are webbed footed waterfowl.  You can see a flock of possibly migrating waterfowl in the sky.  These would be swans, or ducks, or geese.

Beavers build a dam to create a pond.  Then they build a beaver hutch to live in.  The hutch has an underwater entrance.  The outside is sticks cemented toghether with mud.  Even bears can't break into a well-made beaver hutch.  Beavers have webbed feet and a powerful flat tail and are excellent swimmers. 

This drawing, in printable form, is found by clicking on the Animals button.  Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of drawing titles.  Click on the title to get the coloring page to print.  I will also be posting this drawing in the Birds section of my blog.  Again, you will need to scroll to the bottom of the Animals of the World list.  IF you are accessing this page in November or December then this will be among the last drawings on the lists.  IF you are accessing it later then this drawing will be further up the list.  

Have fun coloring!
