Those are neat little footsteps. What sort of critter was doing that? Seems like a tail line as well.

Maybe it was in a full-out sprint.

Looks like a field mouse. Don't know if the wings are owl or hawk.

We have one just about like that in our back yard as of today. There are small prints in the snow heading away from the birdfeeders, looks like maybe a squirrel. Then there's a spot on the snow where it appears a scuffle occurred. The small tracks end there. Going off in a slight angle is a deep divet in the snow, more scuffle signs, a space, and a second deep divet with scuffle signs. It would have been quite interesting to see what happened.

Later today, a small hawk was sitting on the birdfeeder poles, looking for lunch. Looks like our yard is the new hawk feeding station.
