Muddy Moose Prints

Norma, tracking animals across roads is a fun challenge.  This is a fine look at this pair of tracks with sharpness throughout the frame.  I like how you've included the muddy splashes coming from the tracks towards the bottom of the frame.  These show the direction of that foot as it moved.  To tell whether the splashes came as the foot landed or got lifted, I'd look for the adjacent sets of tracks.  It's intriguing that the splashes point in different directions, suggesting that the moose changed directions.  The track on the left is a bit larger, which means it was a front foot.  (In most 4 legged animals the head puts extra weight/pressure on the front feet so they are bigger.)

You sure had a good eye to spot this while driving down the road, Norma.  Also a nice creative eye to see this as a form of art.  Nicely seen and captured.  Great detail. 

I am adding this image to show you what I saw driving down the road. 

The larger view shows that this moose was "limping".  In a normal walk, the front and rear feet on one side land in nearly the same spot.  You see that in every other set of tracks (along the left side of the trail).  On the right hand side, the front and rear feet are landing side by side rather than the rear foot landing on top of the front track.  That's a fine clear set of muddy footprints, Norma, a fun find.
