Hi Nancy,
That tunnel track would likely be one of the mice/voles. This is a safe,
relatively warm way to get from A to B without becoming a meal for some
flying predator.
Safe unless a Fox happens along because they see small rodents with
their ears and can often pin them through >10 cm of snow under all four
feet.
Yt, Dave Webster
