    A dam that tall must have taken a long time to build. I'm surprised even with little use of the road that nobody had it removed sooner. With freezing temperatures, I know here in the US that's not good for the road. Great work.

    The large hay roll looks like a mobile beaver lodge. You better be careful as they may be bringing in friends from far away, and they are bringing beaver caravans. Or even prefab housing like house trailers in the US. They are sneaky. 😆. what is the value of one of those hay rolls in Beaver Land, also known as Palanga, Lithuania area. They cost $30 to $100 in the US, depending on the grade of feed.

    Hi Keni, from Portland, OR. USA We have beavers, too.
    I'm looking at your small push saw. What you need is a GOMBOY Silky saw. Folder type . Teeth? choose Large Medium or Fine. Size? 150, 180, 200 mm. For your work incl. mud, water and stone, get large teeth. The Silky will cut on the pull stroke, not the push. Much better for what you do......

    That hay bale is saturated with water, so it likely weighs more than a ton. It's probably not a good idea to stand next to it as you try your best to undermine it with your shovel. If it falls over you would be trapped and lucky to survive.

    Great technique to use a shovel to dig a wider and deeper channel. Most of that happens under water so we cannot see, but do you feel the water pressure change when you stand there?
