All today's photo's are taken at 20 ft. from this stand in our field. |
There were only 25 out here this evening. The rest were scattered through the woods. |
Their summer's work is to eat... |
...and rest. |
All the elk and red deer have chosen the shade to rest in on this hot summer day. |
Bulls and stags gain hundreds of pounds of fat in the summer which they then lose in rut. |
Eat.................and rest. |
The bulls and stags don't seem to be excited about the wild boar one way or the other. Hogs will give way, but only if pressured. Other years we've seen a stag in hard horn clear an area of bad, 300 pound boars just by sweeping his antlers toward them. |
