Tracking in a winter wonderland.

A fresh blanket of snow is on its way to much of the state! It's a perfect opportunity to connect with the wildlife around us through the clues they leave behind.
Tracking wildlife in winter is like reading a compelling new novel. As animals travel across blank pages of fresh white snow their tracks become words, authoring new chapters every day in the memoir of their elusive lives.
Their story will appear to be written in an unfamiliar language at first, but as you become fluent in wildlife sign, you?ll unlock many secrets of the natural world and never want to put the book down.
After the snow falls, we encourage you to get outside to make some tracks of your own, practice reading wildlife sign, and relish the story of Maine?s winter wildlife. Find tips to help you get started in our blog [ [link removed] ]:
