A rare find! Dinosaur tracks in Maryland! The animal was EXACTLY the size of a wild turkey… a couple of them by the looks of it. =)
These turkey tracks were left a couple days ago when the weather was warm and wet. Now the ground is frozen solid, preserving the tracks…for a while.
Cool!

Yeah, it was really neat what a hard freeze would do in that mud!

Who knows, maybe that mud will turn to rock and in five million years some scientist will consider them a great find! We have lots of wild turkeys here and I find their antics amusing, especially when the boys are strutting their stuff. –Curt

These could be fossils of the future! Makes you wonder what will be roaming the Earth then, when we look back on turkeys as a mysterious creature of the past…

According to at least one definition of the word dinosaur, birds do count as dinosaurs. So yeah, those are dinosaur tracks!

Yes but they are not the non-avian type that everybody gets excited about. 😁

I left tracks in the mud the other week, I am sure they froze the next day. I was at the city dump. A million years from now, if trash filled my prints while frozen, some being will think I was some type of bipedal competing for food with the vultures.
