Here, just as the light begins to hit the beautiful aspen grove on the Oxbow Bend, a beaver decides that it would be a good time to swim through the reflection of Mt. Moran. It added a few big tail slaps for good measure. At one point the beaver came up onto the shore and stared down another photographer for a few seconds. Apparently this beaver does not like photography. That's the great thing about the Oxbow bend though. Aside from the amazing scenery, it is absolutely teeming with wildlife. At any given time you can expect to see, eagles, moose, bear, elk and many other birds and mammals. Just don't expect them to cooperate with your photographic endeavors.
