I’ve had owls follow me on deer trails, at night. I’m sure they follow deer, and other animals, too. Had a Short-Eared Owl follow my dog, years ago. Flew about 4 feet above him, and a few feet behind. Nemo never knew he was there.

For years, during my commute through Franconia Notch, NH, a snowy owl would meet me just north of the notch or in it and fly a few feet in front of and above my car, sometimes for over 5 miles.

This only happened when I was early on the way to work and could drive at 30-40 MPH at 10PM to 2AM depending on when I had to commute.

We have had a blue heron follow us for over 10 miles when canoeing on the Connecticut River and loons swimming back and forth under our canoe on lakes and ponds in 3-4 foot deep water.

If you go early on the snowmobile trails you will often see more animal tracks than snowmobile tracks. It is their highway at night.
