Can you tell anything from snow melt?

You know how you can tell if heat is escaping through the roof of your home by the way snow and ice form and melt on the outside of your roof?

Can you tell the areas of greatest biological activity on your land by snow melt on the ground?

In our neighbor's yard to the left, there's snow melt at the lowest most compacted point.  The horse would make a beeline for our fence, and presumably poop along that line.  Or perhaps it's the wettest there.

Same with.  Snow is melting in the low spots which are the kost wettest. Nothing has melted where the raw manure is (the terraces on the left).

Hmm.
