 FIND
THE DEER #15:
 It
is early Spring and you are, of course, scouting for deer sign. Driving
along, you notice that some of the deer already have their reddish Spring
coats but some don't. You begin by walking a fence line, looking for cross
trails. A hundred yards further you find one, it is full of fresh tracks
that lead to a low spot under the fence. You notice deer hair clinging
to the barbs of the lowest strand of wire.
An interesting part about
this time of year is that the deer are a little more relaxed and not as
spooky -- as in "running when they see you". Today's one of those days.
How many deer are looking at you while you are checking out the cross trail?

Motion
in the brush caught my eye. I recognized the reddish color of it's Spring
coat and carefully reached for my camera and got it in position. A buck
with starter antlers stepped from behind a cedar. He was very co-operative
and gave me several close pics. A few minutes later 2nd
buck sporting his starter antlers came down the trail. A 3rd buck came
later but he crossed to quickly for a picture. Here is wallpaper of the
larger of the two bucks, you can see his new antlers real well. (1024x768)
(800x600) (640x480)
The
"Hammer Hole" is well stocked with cottontail rabbits. They always seem
to be traveling through, eating, or messing around with other rabbits.
Or ducking predators.
On
day #2 Doug Crabtree Sr. worked on a group of gobblers for 3 hours but
they would not come within bow range. Today he pulls a couple of tricks
out of his well worn camo hat and brings those "Hang Up" gobblers in. Plus,
a little bad luck for the hunter he was guiding turns into more than a
little good luck for him.
