On 2/17 the Stanton Bird Club hosted a winter tracking trip at our Woodbury Sanctuary in South Monmouth. The leader was Steve Reed and the participants were Brad and Una Tuck, Roger Zimmerman, David Leroy, Elaine Freeman, and Judy Marden.

The crust and lack of powder made identifying them difficult. We could not see any tracks of Mice, Chipmunks or Vols but here is a list of tracks we did see.

Gray Squirrel
Red Squirrel
Porcupine
Coyote
Bobcat
White-tailed Deer
Moose
Fisher
Snowshoe Hare
Ruffed Grouse
Turkey

The Mammal of the day was the porcupine. He was sleeping on a branch hanging over the trail. A Golden-crowned Kinglet was spotted, but the bird of the day was a Red-tailed Hawk that was being “mobbed” by seven Crows
