What were also very evident in the snow yesterday, were the tracks of deer. Quite a few deer make their home in the town year round, with the marsh being one of their favoured spots. I followed the tracks of at least two deer moving toward town along the trail spur that comes out by CARP headquarters (in the old train station). They had paused along the route to nibble at the tips of the multiflower rose and red osier dogwood bushes. The top photo shows a small dogwood sapling with all its tips bitten off. The bottom shot shows where a number of deer had climbed down to drink from the water in a ditch by the trail. Their tracks continued to the old train station and then up towards the main street.
