TLC is hoping for a light dusting of snow on February 16th for the second part of our Wildlife in Winter series: Camouflage because snow is a great time to observe what animals might be hanging out around your house (or nature preserve).
Over the years, I have found great tracks from mink, raccoon's (easily my favorite), fox, and once even a coyote....the snow is a fun way to see what is out and about in your area. Keep your fingers crossed for a light dusting of snow so you can find tracks at Bucktoe Creek Preserve for our Wildlife In Winter Series, and click HERE to sign up.
Here's a track that I came across the last light dusting of snow that we had. Any guesses???
I'll give you a hint--Peter Cottentail would like hanging out with this small mammal....
