North Country explorer from East Aurora, NY
This is a picture of squirrel tracks at Stone Valley in Colton, NY. There were a lot of squirrel as well as porcupine tracks while we were walking along the snowy trail. When squirrels are frightened they will run back and forth to confused predators. Based on the tracks in this picture it doesn't look like the squirrel was being threatened or was in any rush. I think this photo is interesting because of the way the thin branch highlights the squirrel's path.
