Beaver problem

Yes, I'm afraid to report that we have a beaver problem. The sticks in the kindling basket get taken out and chewed on. The wood in the pile beside the wood stove get gnawed on. And I think that we know who the culprit is. And it doesn't look like a beaver. It has four legs, a long-ish body, a tail, two ears, it's pure black.....

Yup. The "beaver" is Finnegan. He has a lovely habbit of chewing on our firewood and making a mess. We don't let him, but he tries it anyway.

I am sorry that I haven't posted in here for ages. I really don't know what got into me. But I'm here now, and I'm posting. :)
