mystery tracks..... any guesses?
I woke up to see that something made a beeline for the back yard last night. All the way across the frozen wetland
Whatever it was made deep tracks and left chunks of snow on the side of it's trail. I see a lot of tracks back there but this looks really unusual.
Narrow and deep trail, could even be an otter or other low-profile critter... there's a crick way back there.
What do you think?
I'm guessing the trail it made is about a foot wide and looks like it went through the fence rather than over it, hopefully it left some fur.
These pics show only what I see so far, so I don't even know yet. I'll get down there later to ID them. Too heavy to be Fox, they walk right on top of that windblown snow.
