Today, on this particularly warm Monday afternoon, I took a walk with a friend over to Centennial woods. It was a very pleasant day to be out and about, and the snow was nice and packable, which all made excellent conditions for some winter tracking. Walking around in centennial i noticed buds on the trees which are preparing for spring, a plethora of animal tracks, the stream was only partly frozen, and you could hear it babbling, and a sense of spring was in the air. I was surprised about the number of tracks my partner and I encountered down in centennial. I recall seeing what I think were cottontail rabbit, pacer tracks that I think were skunk, squirrel and a k-9 track that I suspect to be a coyote. It was really cool to see this diversity in tracks because I haven’t seen any coyote or pacer tracks yet and I found that super exciting. I would love to go back soon before the snow melts away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
