Tracks - Sit Spot #772 - March 10, 2021

Dog Tracks

To help myself become more familiar

with the whole process of tracking

I watched my dog carefully today 

during our walk.

Some observations from looking and reading:

Dog tracks often overlap.

rear paw tracks  landing on top of front paw tracks.

Usually 4 toes and claws showing on both feet.

Usually dogs have 5 toes on front, 4 on back.

Front paws are larger than rear paws.

More Notes: 

     1. I was working at Plan  B Organic Farm

again this morning so missed out on the morning

bird activity.

     2. Our bee keeper was visiting to check on the bees this afternoon. He found that all the bees in all seven hives were dead. Very devastating for all of us

and them too I am sure.
