I Think We All Know Who Made Those Tracks…

Very early this morning, I mean really early, we noticed some fresh tracks in the salt marsh mud leading out to the shallow water due to low tide.

The architect of the tracks was quickly spotted making his way along the mud and out into the water to get an early jump on some morning fishing.

The little sneak had gotten up and out right at sunrise, no doubt to surprise the seafood buffet that will be unprepared for a hungry breakfast guest.

Its path looks like the old ric rac ribbon that my grandmother used for decoration when sewing.

Looks like tracks of an alligator, and the alligator looks like he has fins and is swimming.

How on earth did you capture this?! I love the “tracks”. Of course I knew instantly who made them. :P)
