In support of trail initiatives to stay off the mud, a seasonal change of pace and my wife's irrational desire to have me home during the day to get some yard work done I am "hunting" this spring. Best bet is a short pre-dawn or pre-dusk hike to a familiar, reasonably remote area that numerous tracks were observed during winter outings. Then it's time to stop and wait. "Camo" colored clothes with a flash of hunter orange won't hurt. I bring something to sit on and snack (quietly) on. If you can get your back in a corner, up high against a wall, ledge or trees, that's ideal. My last couple outings I got a fox, a nice shot of a Canada Goose in a marsh and flock of turkey. You can always do a power hike before or after if this is too dull.
My goal is a nice photo collection of tracks and corresponding animals.
