What do you base this on?Sure. But Hunters Mark isn't heightened senses. It's a Mark you can sense out of the range of your normal senses.
If you exclude the word "mystically" from the spell description, there is zero hint of this. The effect is,
"..you have advantage on any Wisdom (Perception) or Wisdom (Survival) check you make to find it (the creature you have marked)"
..which is exactly the kind of effect one might expect from being focused on the target..
It makes no reference to any kind of magical mark that you can detect... It's fine if that's how you like to think of it.. But there's nothing inherently magical in limited-use advantaged perception/survival checks.
Edit: Also, advantage to perception/survival checks is like the textbook definition of "heightened senses" within the context of D&D 5e.
