Animal Prints in the Snow

Whenever fresh snow arrives, it doesn't take long before animal footprints begin to appear, reminding me that we are surrounded by various species in trees, bushes and burrows...

Day by day, more prints appear. I think these show that a rabbit passed by.

Wild rabbits hop around our yard early in the morning and late in the evening.

I can smell that a family of skunks lives under one of our sheds. (I like to think that they deter prowlers!)

But I really have no idea what rabbits use for shelter, winter or summer!
