Here is a shot of some tracks by one of my ponds. The shoe in the picture is size 13 included for scale. So what left these tracks, Big Bird? I suspect it isn't a Velociraptor. Maybe a great blue heron? They don't look quite turkey to me.

I'd say it's a turkey.
Turkeys and coons....
Interesting combo you have there, Pat.
The shoe is blue, but I don't think it's a heron. [img]/forums/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]
A turkey with blue shoes!
Any cranes migrating through - big ones like Sandhills?
Whatever it was it probably got mugged by that masked bandit that was following it.
No sandhill cranes that I have noticed in 4 years. Do see great blue heron and turkey.

Gary, Careful with the mud slinging as I seem to have a lot more ammunition than you.

5string, There were also armadillo and some canid tracks. likely coyote but not neccessarily in the picture I posted. We are crawling with coons. They literally dot the roadside with their carcasses, one way to estimate their numbers. They leave tracks all around my house building site every time there is a sprinkle of rain to allow a lasting impression.
