A line of many tracks in a thin layer of undisturbed snow on a stone patio. Each footprint is three diverging lines, the centre one 2 to 3 times longer than the sides. They look like a cloud of little wayfaring arrows printed on the land, all urging us in the same direction.
Visited again yesterday by our local flock of partridges, but this time on a thin layer of fresh snow
I love that their tracks are like little arrows trailing over the landscape, like on a secret treasure map, but pointing backward… to confuse the predators?
