I will be the first to admit that I was spectacularly stupid when I posted the last trenche of Jan's mystery footprints. They were of course feral cat prints, but the efficacy of the compy was not helped by the fact that the name of the *.jpg proclaimed as much.Today I have been fiendishly clever and changed the name of the images....
That first one looks somewhat similar to the prints i saw and photographed a few days ago on a snow-covered frozen canal in Birmingham, which were similarly grouped in threes. (I haven't uploaded the photo yet, but probably will soon, maybe tonight.)
ReplyDeleteHowever, those prints looked identical in everything apart from their arrangement to all the (obvious domestic) cat tracks in the vicinity, so my conclusion was that they were presumably the tracks of a 3-legged cat. These don't look so catlike to me, but i'm going to guess a 3-legged something...
I would hazard a gues at rabbit or hare, front feet close together appearing as one track.
