When the snows melted, revealed to my surprise were many extensive mouse trails around and inside the meadows. It was like discovering a archeological dig. A few weeks have passed since then and the trails have faded. The mice actually helped aerate the soil and now the grass is growing in nicely.
Looks like snow cover (1 solid month this year) actually is good for the mouse population during winter. I've never seen so many mouse trails outside before.
