Saw foot prints of a #Bobcat that we have been hearing in the evenings, 150m from the cabin, where we have been restoring an old field into #OakWoodlands!

Collected a lot of measurements and found a #hair sample. Just couldn't help being an #ecologist even on a casual ski day!

The browsing, trampling, & defecation by the #blacktaileddeer in #oakwoodlands may affect the distribution of #nutrients, the regeneration patterns of dominant plants (e.g. #oaks), and the interaction of dominant #plants with other plant species in the #ecosystem.
