[attachment=1]So after a couple days of sleet and snow on Wednesday and Thursday, I thought I would get out for a bit to look around in the snow. Figured I could use the exercise but also don't get a lot of chances to see trails in the snow.

I wandered quite a bit. Found some deer beds in a few places I expected and some I didn't. There were other creatures that had been wandering also. Only coyote track I came across.
Then across that field I found where the turkeys had crossed.

On the back hill I found quite a bit of activity

I ended up a bit farther than I planned. Covered about 3.5 miles in 6" of snow. My knees and hips were feeling it by the time I got back. I've been living on the place for 59 years and am still learning new things about the patterns here. When I was a kid, it was a big deal just to find a deer track.  Now last fall I killed my best buck ever here.
I found this last set of tracks on my way back. Any help on identifying what made them?

It's not a possum track. I know what they look like and these are small. 1/2" and only couple inches apart. You can see how they went in a straight line across the field. I got the tip of my longbow in the pic by accident for size reference

After spending some time researching, the best I can come up with is weasel tracks.

Looks like a good time! I had plans to get out for a little while today...cancelled due to the need for some roof repair. Tuesday will be my next opportunity to wander a bit.
