Animal Track Trap

Many people enjoy seeing wildlife in their grounds, or local area. Most of the time though we only see those that are active during the day, like birds on a feeder.
Use this resource from Learning through Landscapes to make a simple soil/sand trap that will allow you to capture the footprints of those unseen visitors and those that visit at night!
