These hoofed mammal (ungulate) prints almost certainly belong to one of the increasing number of muntjac deer who can be seen along the river Ock.

We had snow today too here in the Midwest US. The best thing about snow is seeing the tracks, as well as watching my dog play in the drifts!
ReplyDeleteHi Anne,
ReplyDeleteGood to hear from you. I agree, whenever it snows I'm itching to get out and see what has been around that night. I was hoping to find otter tracks, but alas there no signs anywhere along the river.
