A Fresh Year of Tracks

The new year has brought fresh snow and fresh tracks for me to study. I have identified these tracks as those of an Eastern Cottontail Rabbit.

The tracks aren’t the only change I’ve seen, as there seems to be no remaining leaves in the hardwoods and decomposition has taken affect in the subnivean zone.

There were much more than just rabbit tracks in my spot, but I haven’t been able to identify any other species yet, so hopefully more tracking will train my eye!
