Accompanying Text
"...A quarter of a mile down-stream it occurred again, thus: [image] and near by still less of a track, but marks as if it had pecked in the snow. Could it be the track of a crow with its toes unusually close together? Or was it an owl? Some creature has been eating elm blossom-buds and dropping them over the snow."
