Where did I go?
One of my new places to go for walks is on the biker trail along Spear Street. Along the trail is many bushes and trees that are home to birds and other small wildlife. Further down you go, the one side backs up to woods and a more natural area. The birds are always chirping and are many rattling of bushes.
The Encounter!
The walk was quite in the sense of nature. Just the sound of cars and the occasional rustling of bushes. At one point on the trail where the woods thicken on the right. There were small imprints in the snow. They were below a tree around other woody ground cover. The prints follow into the denser woods where more trees are. The prints itself were small, showing a gallop formation. The front feet in front of the hind. There were 4 toes and measurement of paw estimated around 4 cm.
What was it?
After narrowing it down what the print was. I knew it had to be a small mammal, using a galloping motion. I found the print to belong to a grey squirrel.
