On Sunday, February 20th, I took a break from exploring Centennial Woods and went down to Lake Champlain. I walked a little farther down the bike path from the waterfront park, near the skate park, and watched the sunset from a short dock. It was bitterly cold and violently windy, but wildlife signs and the beautiful sunset made it completely worth it.

Among the signs of wildlife I saw were snow fleas, squirrel tracks, a rabbit and its tracks, birds and their tracks, and canine footprints (but those probably came from dogs).

Using iNaturalist to submit photos of wildlife and wildlfie signs has been fun, and it feels good to know that I am contributing to data. I was also intrigued by looking through other people’s submissions and learn about their findings.
