I encountered a set of small prints where the hind legs landed before the front legs, which made me narrow it down to a galloper. I used the context of pattern to observe the tracks led to a tree and then away from it, making me realize it was likely a squirrel. I then deduced it was an eastern gray squirrel due to the place. I also observed some diagonal walker prints following along the outside of a fence and found these to be interesting because there were no human prints in proximity. Still, based on the location and appearance of the prints I deduced them to be from a dog, likely exploring off leash. I found that adding the eastern gray squirrel pictures that I observed to iNaturalist app was a very user friendly and positive experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-97\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-1568x1176.jpg 1568w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8534-rotated.jpg 2016w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Squirrel prints I reported to iNaturalist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8535-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-98\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8535-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8535-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8535-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/blog.uvm.edu\/phenologyblogelliedurant\/files\/2024\/02\/IMG_8535-rotated.jpg 1512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Dog prints I also observed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today I set out to a cropping of trees near my dorm building, University Heights North.
