    Tracks by pond

    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.

    gsganzer, Could easily be turkey as we have a cou[ple flocks of 20 or more that wander between me and the neighbor to the south.

    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.

    The shoe is blue, but I don't think it's a heron. [img]/forums/images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

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

    Maybe you should package the mud as an Oklahoma Facial!
