There is a garden tool in Germany, which is called „Sauzahn“. Perhaps the beaver insulations could be loosened up more easily. Just one example of what the device looks like: kzread.info/dash/bejne/hqqt1cOGZNqWk6g.html

you can see how this dam is flooding the field ,If I may suggest ,a drone view would have been great to show how much water was in the field before and after so people could get a better understanding of the importance of what you do here, this was a huge amount of water you released , a Very good job indeed ,early march we have birds back from Mexico swallows and purple Martins ,Robins ,and others here in Texas

The Beavers have been building dams for centuries, and these dams helped some farmers to irrigate their crops Modern men come along to destroy their home for his selfish purpose. Shameless and regardless humans.
Impressive removal! The wall of mud was really hard work to dig out. You had to both use your strength and your weight to loosen those big chunks of mud. 💪😃👍🏋️♀️
So nice to see you are having sunshine and the snows have gone! We still have 10" here in Upstate NY and no sign of any robins yet. But, Spring can't be too far away. Thank you for a nice video. Good job!!

That dam was a ton of work! I'm happy to see your eyes always focused on the water/dam when you are removing sticks and branches in the beginning of your removals. Great work!
You are a one man wrecking crew!! Great work! I hope the beavers don't know where you live!!!
It's been a little while since you had to tackle a dam as large as this one and was good to see all your differing skills being used. Totally awesome to watch and see how the current help you in a controlled manner, but looks like you may have to revisit yesterdays dam. Always a pleasure to watch you working. Stay Safe. 👍🇬🇧

I was really looking forward to this after seeing the dam in the last culvert video! That was a lot of work. If you hadn't have cleared it, I would have thought there was a concrete wall under all that mud! It was satisfying to see that stream coming off of the fields. Happy you are having nice Spring weather there!
Wow, that release was huge. At first the volume didn't appear it would be that much. Well done 👏🏻.
I really liked the angle of your camera. I could see just what you were pulling away from the dam with each rake full. What you do is really hard work. Thank you for all you do.

Wow Mantas, a lot of work, al huge amount of water. Well done. You over whelmed that poor little culvert. One of your best dams yet
I live near New York City and have numerous bird feeders in my yard. I see different birds all the time. Since Spring is knocking on the door, I saw my first Robin the other day. I love feeding the birds and watching your videos. I don’t have any actual beavers in my area, but I have human beavers that clog culverts and drains with garbage litter that I always clean up after. Anyways keep up the good work.

I love it when your rake hooks a big chunk of mud and sticks and you can see it roll over the fall.
Interesting that you have birds going to Africa during Winter. Here in Canada we have the wild geese that migrate to the Southern US and Mexico during Winter, and they return to the North in great numbers when Spring comes, around April usually.
What a difference the removal made! Great work my friend. Here in the states one of the most massive migrations is of the monarch butterfly, which flies 2,500 miles from Mexico to the eastern United States.

Nice removal! About birds: over here in Guadalajara in central Spain we have swifts, housemartins and swallows come around this time of the year. They leave back to Africa in August. The sky of the whole city is very busy all day long with swifts, and they free us from flies and mosquitos, which is an excellnt service. We love the birds!!
That was a very old, and strong dam! There was trees growing on it! Amazing job! Thankfully those fields will drain now.👍
I’ve been watching your videos the whole week and just love them. The flowing water is really soothing. I can’t believe there is that much water constantly draining from the fields.❤

it really was a big dam to remove. but you did once again a good job even if it was hard working again. it will do the fields good to drain all that water.

I really enjoy watching your hard work. It is very therapeutic. Thank you for filming the work you do and streaming it online. Here on the Oregon coast in the USA, we have geese migrating every year in large numbers. We also have Swifts that spend the winter in South America and return in April; and May. We have two nesting boxes I made on our house and have hosted clutches of Swifts now for two years in a roll. Swifts pair for life, unless one dies for some reason, so we believe we had the same pair for the past two years, as they return to the same nests if they can. Last year, I was slow putting the boxes back up after taking them down to refresh over the winter. The Swifts came back and were all over out house where the boxes had been the two years before, so I had to quickly put the back up so they could move in. The first year they had three babies and last year four, which is the most they have typically each year.
Tearing down such a large dam certainly makes excellent video. You have to keep in mind that the penned up water is not only in the canal, but also in the water table of the ground on either side. Lowering the dam in increments allows the ground water adjacent to the canal to more slowly find its way into the canal.
Great job! It looks totally different. I'm amazed at the neglect of the drainage ditches. The people there are very lucky to have someone like you doing this for free! You could make money doing this. However, I know it's your hobby and your job is being a farrier.🐎

In the Midwest of the U.S. we have Canadian Geese that migrate South in the Fall/Winter and come back North in the Spring/Summer. Their migratory flight path runs through my state, so we see a lot of them flying around those times of the year. We also have a lot of farm land here and the birds stop to forage for corn, wheat, and soy beans that are left on the ground after the harvest in the Fall, before their long flight South.

Hey bud, here in the states the geese are flying their big "V" formations back north where they will nest and breed for the summer. They are beautiful as they honk their way across the skies. The hunters will have at them in the fall. You don't look too worse for wear from the winter and are you ready for another summer of dam busting ??? Looking forward to more of your great videos !!!

You do such a great job! To answer the migratory bird question: one bird we have in our area, the Kirtlands Warbler, migrates from winters in Bermuda to the Jack Pine groves of northern Michigan. They’re very particular about their nesting habitat and have been on the Endangered Species List for a long time. But the numbers are climbing so there’s hope.

Ah! To be young and healthy again! Enjoy the fresh air and exercise! Nice work! Bet you wish you had an excavator right about now!
Good job! That was really hard work I'm sure. This dam highlighted the need to remove these dams as the erosion was blatantly obvious. It also made clear why you need an excavator in order to remove the dam fully to make it more difficult for the beavers to rebuild and for you to be able to work more efficiently. Removing all of that dam by manual labour alone is too much to ask. Especially when you are not being paid for it.

Great job Mantas as usual !!! You dug real deep and definitely level the ground out !!! Super work !!
Great videos thank you keep up the good work 😊
WELL DONE!!! If beavers can read your hat it may give them incentive to KEEP YOU BUSY, BUT THEY PROBABY DON'T NEED IT. Just a thought...
Another great job!! Yes, we do have migrating birds, the Robin, Blue Jay and the Orioles are some but the most interesting is the Hummingbirds, they are about the size of a mans thumb and when go south they fly up to migrating geese or ducks and land on their backs and catch a ride south. Google them, they are very interesting little birds and amazing to watch hovering around a feeder, which is filled with sugar water with a red dye to attract them.
Ohio USA. We have warblers migrating from the south up to Canada right now, Beautiful songs.
That was a big one. I didn't think you'd do it as well as you did. The spade was very effective on the mud at the base.
Question: Have you heard anything back from Post 10? I'd love to see you tackle a big dam together. Of course the ones he does almost always involve working at culverts, but once in awhile he tackles a free-standing dam. Good job in this video!
