Winter Is Here !

 

Central Massachusetts received 2” of fluffy snow last Sunday night which made for ideal tracking conditions. I got in fifteen miles over four days looking for animal tracks. My hope was to cross a fisher track, follow it, looking for scent mounds and then set out a trail camera(s). I was rather surprised I didn’t find one. My efforts were in areas that I’ve seen fishers or my camera traps have caught them on video. This makes for a good winter project. I’ll keep you updated with my progress.

The cover picture is a bank beaver lodge with a cache of tree limbs in the water at the lodge opening. It will be interesting to see what wildlife visits this location over the winter. A beautiful bull moose is the first to stroll by.
