Winter Wonderland

Photo Influx starting....... now.


With flitterings of little feet...bird feet


Looks like an alpaca... but this deer just got tired



What I think are fox tracks because of the straight running line



This is what a rabbit's tracks look like in hard pack snow, you can make out his/her nail marks



Back and forth mice



The next two photos remind me of the southwest canyons and plateaus but... white instead of ochre






Shag carpeting!



Woodpecker in the pine tree



Panorama!



View from the top
