Tracks might disappear under the snow, only to reappear a few feet away. Or they might lead to a spot where unmistakable feather marks indicate a bird of prey swooping down on an unlucky mouse.

Animal tracks can be found all year, but they are easily seen in the winter months.
Kids love to discover the tracks in the snow.
