Spring is upon us. The rhodora
are blooming on northern bogs. The
earth is redolent with odors frozen
under the snow all winter long. The
calls of goshawks echo in the woods.
The accumulated scats of mammals at
different levels of the snowpack
devolve to the single surface of the
ground..
Spring and summer are the subtle
seasons, where sign must be picked
out from varied and disguising
backgrounds. The mud on the margins
of beaver ponds, the sand of exposed
shorelines, the soft spring earth,
disturbances to vegetation, all record
the passage of wild animals for the eye
of the observant tracker.
