Animal tracks in the Snow...

Every season of the year offers new prospects of discovery in Oatka Creek Park. Winter is a great time to observe the foot prints of the animal occupants of the place. It is a real treat to be the first one in the park after a fresh snowfall and find no human foot prints on certain trails but a myriad of other prints left by the wild inhabitants. I find it interesting when my dogs plug their noses deep into the holes left by passing white tail deer so they can get a better scent of what it might have been.
