Status Update

Some exciting news coming soon! Should be an announcement early next week. Stay tuned......

Tracks

This is a Bobcat track. It stepped into a Cougar track. This Bobcat track is about the size of a house cat. The Cougar track even though it has melted some it is a good size cat. It is also going in the opposite direction of the Bobcat.

Coyote tracks.

These are very fresh coyote tracks. You can tell by the way the track melted. They are well formed and haven't melted. He left a perfect mold.

The three marks? He must have pushed the snow with his nose. Perhaps he was sniffing for a snack.

Who's Tracks?

These are easy to identify. Most of the time you can even see the squirrel near by. He will probably chirp at you.Also nearby you can find a stump or even a downed log and it will have pine cone pieces all over it. Of course this is their feeding area. They eat pine nuts.

Black squirrel tracks.

Animal Tracks

Do you know how to track animals? Which way are they going? What are they? I will be posting some pictures that will help to see what who and which direction they are going.
