The Beaver...

[fajrdrako]

auriaephiala sent me this amusing item about a beaver on the streets of Ottawa.

It would be amusing anyway, but it's all the more fun that it was two MPs who found him. Amazing that it got that far onto Bay Street - we're not talking suburbs or riverside parkland, that's utterly urban.

About two years ago there was a young brown bear on Carling Avenue. Sometimes the wildlife just... explores.

I wonder what the beaver is telling his lodgemates about the adventure. ("Don't go up there - they have politicians.")

Now you've got me imagining the not-so-little fellow in 23rd Century Starfleet blue! :-D

Works for me. Be sure to put a maple leaf somewhere on his uniform!

If Masao Okazaki will forgive me the borrowing from his Starfleet Museum site (http://www.starfleet-museum.org/lancaster.htm)...perhaps this one will do.


He's been doing some really good design work for Pocket Books the last little while, particularly on the ST: Vanguard novels. The namesake station itself, the Archer-class USS Sagittarius...and I'm hoping to see Cervantes Quinn's little commercial pocket starship Rocinante as well getting his attentions.
