For this phenology blog, I went to centennial woods, Jericho, and I also found prints near my dorm. I found the iNaturalist app helpful in recording my animal tracks and other sightings. It offered possible animals that could have caused the occurance I posted which helped me to narrow down what I thought the print could possibly have been.
I narrowed down the tracks that I saw at Jericho to be a white tailed deer. I decided these tracks were a deer track because of the sharp points on top of the print as well as the stride.
the next print that I found was in centennial woods. I decided that this print was from a red fox because the two front nails were pointing forward and the sides were pointing slightly away.
I also found a tree that was carved out at centennial woods. I at first thought that it could be from a beaver but at closer look i realized that it was probably a wood pecker beacuse of the square shape that was made in the tree.
Lastly, I found what I thought were squirrel prints near my dorm. I thought they were squirrel prints because of the prints were left by a bounder. The print shape also looked like a squirrel.
