Great image!!

cool prints ;-) and enigma

My question is: what was it? Squirrel, chipmunk? It slowed down... or the snow got deeper! Very interesting, Clive

LOL That is to cool...I love that. Excellent capture Bill...hehe

Must have been squirrels. I can see them leaping, just looking at this! That's a lot of snow! Brrrrr! Stay warm ...

brought a smile :) perfect title and nice exposure

Beautiful scene....

very beautiful, and intriguing !!!

Keen image with a tale to tell.

Nice POV with the track. Well caught!

searching for your birds?

Your garden looks so clean!

You look to have had a lot of snow. These prints make a great pattern and prove guilt too. I hope you are warm.

Nice shot, and love how your yard meets such a nice wooded area. Great for the animals and birds.

Terrific lighting to emphasize the stitching effect across the snow, Bill! Have you any idea as to the identity of the perpetrator who created these strange tracks?

wonderful looking with the tracks

You had a visitor. Sure wasn't rabbits as they leave prints that look like they were drunk and couldn't follow a straight line. Cool capture.

You had multiple visitors, and I think they had fluffy tails and those expressions on their faces seem to say: "Hey, what are you looking at? Of course I'm cute, now go away, I'm eating." Hmmm...maybe I've been encountering Chicago squirrels too much.

I'm guessing squirrels also since all tracks lead to the tree that leads to the food. Cool shot in any case Bill. Dana

everyone is saying squirrels but wow Okay those are some big squirrels then haha I guess because you feed them so well. And I finally got outside today and I had some similar paw prints in my yard little bitty ones like bunny rabbits and you asked about my classes they are over until the first of next month and then I am also going to sign up for a seminar with Nikon in either North Carolina or Texas, I want to do the one in North Carolina but I-40 is out right now and for probably the next 6 months due to a rock slide and there is another highway that I could take so we will see. But I am really looking forward to that class. Have a good night...

Excellent capture of these tracks Bill see thats what happens when you leave food out in snowy conditions lol.. Well done!!

What a wonderful shot. Great comments too. I see that Corey commented before me and well...yeah...the squirrels in his neighborhood are a bit shamelessly surly...I think they're actually carnivorous. Enough of that, though. I love this shot. You've used the light of the day amazingly and I love the neatness of the tracks. It looks cold though. Beautifully lit but not warm, but that's okay too because your image is rich and for some reason, I imagine myself having shoveled snow (a strangely relaxing chore) shortly before retiring indoors to enjoy hot cocoa with a hint of hazelnut while looking out at the back yard, or settling before the keyboard to pound out at least a page of something involving odd characters, or curling up with a good book only to realize that the cat has claimed it as a pillow. I love it when a single image sparks these associations, and this is an association-sparking image for me if ever there was one! Great work.

What worries me is that it is an uneven number!! So one of them who came - never left???? deep frown lol... Great image Bill and I love the fun!

great winter picture!!

squirrels? When I first looked---given the bird feeding bowl---I thought, "Man, those are big freakin' birds!" (If those were birds, I'd suggest gettin' outa town!) Love the tracks in the snow, and the pattern, and the snippet of the bird bowl, and the little forest behind your yard. And is that a dog pen in the back left? I can't tell. I hope no one's using it during the winter. Brrrrr's right. It's a cold image. Delightful, Bill. A real winter delight.

You cant take this to the court.... The guilty one is gone.....

marvelous image!!

except for mowing the grass I would like to have a yard that big.looks like your dog has been running the fence line

Mysterious indeed, single track or very wide in front!!!!! I think you need the girls to mess your garden up :o)

As long as it wasn't 1...once...that could be worrying :)
