Tracks, trails and signs

**Laikipia** Tue Apr 01, 2014 3:52 pm

I've just been in the woods with the dogs and was having a look under the bridge for tracks. This is what I found .... (I don't mean my scrunchie - that was to show the size as I didn't have anything useful with me) Laughing

Sadly mink not badger or polecat!

That's an interesting find for you Lai but not a good one being Mink, they are little devastators aren't they. Not their fault that many were released into the wild but they are bad news for wildlife.
Using your scrunchie for size was a fab idea Tracks, trails and signs 768480

just a shame you weren't comparing the size with Badger tracks or Polecats but i'm sure Chris Packham would be excited by your find, even though i'm sure he would have something to say about the Mink.
Thanks for sharing that Lai.......your trepid explorer cheers

I've made a note to myself to carry something useful like a key or something to show the size better Littlewid Laughing

Great find Lai, although not such good news its Mink. Hopefully you'll find other wildlife, and my fingers are X. One question how do you know its Mink ?

Must admit I wouldn't have known what animal that was just by looking at the tracks so that book of yours has definitely done the trick cheers

Yes both Littlewid. I left the cams out for 3 nights and have some clips. Sadly my laptop is defunct at the moment and the clips are on it, Pete is going to sort it out tonight and if I don't lose the 12 clips I can post a few.

Glad you laptop's sorted Lai, and you didn't loose any clips, looking forward to seeing what you've captured. I must try, and find a secluded spot round here for mine. I hope Rosie's improving
