#ArtAdventCalendar Day 14 catch-up: Beaver Engineer Pro Tip: You’re always welcome to Like & Subscribe, but whatever you do, don’t hit the lynx.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day13 catch-up: Oh, snap! Today’s session is a reminder that this is a dangerous undertaking. But beaver engineers are trained professionals, with access to industry-leading chain-mail mittens.

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 12 catch-up. Conditions were slippery after rain all day, so the night crew used extreme caution placing the latest addition. But that’s about the most dangerous thing they could add at this point, right? Right?

#ArtAdventCalendar Day 11 catch-up. That’s a red flag if I’ve ever seen one! Two, in fact! But is it because of the dangerous animal they just added to the pile…or is something even more dangerous on its way?

Very late for #ArtAdventCalendar Day 10. At this point I’d worry about heights, but I’m told this crew knows what they’re doing—despite being a semi-aquatic, terrestrial species!

Overtime for the crew tonight with #ArtAdventCalendar Day 9. Yet another piece of winter clothing is carefully applied by a beaver engineer, who are known as much for their keen fashion sense as they are for building enormous stacks of animals.

Behind schedule #ArtAdventCalendar Day 8: Construction on the Solstice Tower continues, and stability is paramount. As the weather turns frigid and high winds sweep over Toronto, a beaver engineer checks windspeed at the present tower height.

It may be Day 11 of #ArtAdventCalendar for the rest of the world, but this crew is beavering away on the blueprints for Day 7.

A somewhat tardy entry for Day 6 of #ArtAdventCalendar. The beaver engineers have issued press release on a piece of birch bark, inscribed only with the words “We know, we know.”

Three days late for #ArtAdventCalendar Day 5 sees the beaver crews working well into the night to catch up. But, I ask you, are corners being cut? It’s starting to look tippy!

A very late #ArtAdventCalendar Day 4. The beaver crew have apologized for being behind schedule, but this is Toronto, where many construction projects are WAY behind schedule. More snow has arrived, to welcome the latest addition into place!

Footage of Day 3’s #ArtAdventCalendar construction action was delayed but our intrepid crew of Castor canadensis clearly has not been.

Daylight on Day 2’s #ArtAdventCalendar reveals that they’ve been busy overnight. Wait, does that platform have wheels?

It looks like #AdventArtCalendar 2024 is mainly taking place on BlueSky, but I’m posting mine here, there, and Mastodon too!

Late on the evening of Day 1, I got a missive from the local beavers, engineers all, announcing their participation with some kind of so-called "tradition" they are planning to celebrate the Solstice.
