Late winter fisher and marten

Interestingly, after mostly drawing a blank on these two species for much of the winter, both showed up within a week of each other, to sets that are less than 1/4 mile apart.    First, the fisher:  




Based on the apparent size and color, I guess this to be a small female fisher.
The marten below is quite a bit smaller.


Interesting how similar the pose is to the fisher's.
