Well Mr. Cook, you wanted to see some bucks, so here they are. Granted, these are the little guys. The bigun's don't come out until later in the evening.

Dang...
I told you they were little (they're still in velvet) but there are two forks and a six pointer. The one that I chased out of the garden a couple of days ago was a couple inches beyond the ears and came forward quite a bit. Not much length on the tines yet, but it will be a 12 pointer as long as none get broken off.
Paul's hoping that one will come back the third week of November.
;D
Ah to live in God's country. I think I may retire and move in next door! :)
I'll have to keep my camera handy. I've been chased by turkeys twice now in my back yard. I'm convinced the little buggers want into the RV.
And they are FAST!!!!
I should take my camera when I walk the dog. We've been going early enough that we've been seeing all sorts of deer: doe, bucks and fawns.
Last week we saw 1 doe w/3 fawns crossing the road, we've seen the papa buck (12 pointer) regularly about a month ago, and we see assorted doe and fawns all the time. 1 doe was eating out of our bird feeder for about 2 weeks.
You don't have to be "up north" to see the critters! :D
