I went to Centennial, but instead of looking for tracks at my phenology spot I explored the rest of the woods and found some really cool stuff!
Photos 1-2 (from left to right): The tracks may belong to a Gray Squirrel. The tracks stopped right in front of an Eastern Hemlock tree which leads me to believe the animal climbed up it. The tracks are also in a galloping pattern. I don’t think they belong to a Red Squirrel because of their larger size. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/262987511
Photo 3: The tracks are very faint, but they could belong to a shrew as the tracks look even smaller than those of a mouse. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/262987724
Photos 4-6: I think these tracks could belong to a Cottontail Rabbit, because they’re skinnier than those of a Snowshoe Hare. The tracks lead up to and stop in front of a secluded log, and I think this could be the den of the rabbit. The tracks are also in a bounding pattern. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/262988979
