Algonquin Winter Tracking Algonquin Winter Tracking 2011 | 
    
      | Sunday (Day 9) | 
| My last day. I basically took it easy again today, gradually making my 
	way westward through the park, preparatory to heading home. | 
    
      | 
			
				
					|  | A couple of inches of snow 
					fell the pervious night, making the evergreen trees very 
					pretty. |  | 
    
      | 
			
				
					|  | At the Opeongo Road I watched 
					a Red Squirrel make these tracks as it crossed a closed 
					road. This little guy's tracks are 47" (4 feet) apart! He 
					moved with a springy "boing boing" motion (that's the best 
					way to describe it!), not the usual leaps that we are used 
					to seeing squirrels make. It was just as if he had springs 
					on the bottom of his feet! |  | 
      | 
			
				
					|  | The highlight of the day was 
					being able to photograph a couple of Pine Martens as they 
					mooched off a bird feeder. |  | 
      | 
			
				
					|  | A trip along the Rock Lake 
					road provided the opportunity to photograph some cliffs, as 
					well as examine various tracks, including those of an otter 
					(not shown). |  | 
| 
			
				
					|  | And finally, at Arowhon Road, 
					this interesting snow pattern on a rock under a tree. |  | 
    
    
      | And thaaaat's all, folks! I had a great week in the 
		outdoors, once again!! |
