The Rut - Part1
A week and a half ago the girls found an active scrape on the north end of the property. It was conveniently located under a licking branch and alongside a wide, mowed trail.
What I did was relocate one of the trail cameras so that it was situated right over the scrape. Hopeful that nobody would be spooked by the camera I kept my fingers crossed for pictures of whoever was visiting.
Here's the first batch of pictures. On October 25th at spike buck and a doe...

Got Mice?
One of the things about living in the country is all of the wildlife. Hawks, deer, porcupine, cranes and so-forth. Even rodents.
Take this mouse for instance.
I was checking the fill gauge on the propane tank yesterday and found this little guy had moved and and started to build a winter nest under the domed cover.
I left him be but I did warn him that the propane delivery guy might not be as forgiving and that he might want to move to a winter residence that was more secure. Like the Frau's potting shed...

A Nice Daily Routine
I scored a quality weekend with my girls.
I've been out several times bow hunting. Seeing deer (always a good sign) but no shots taken yet.
In the intervening hours the girls have been getting some hunting in too. Not a bad time to do some scouting as well.
Found some active scrapes and plenty of rubs by doing so - and a good place to erect a ground blind.
It's a nice routine we got going...

Swamp Gas
Lest you not believe in the existence of swamp gas - it does exist.
It has a tendency to accumulate at the sun sets and the air grows colder. Warmer and moisture-laden air condenses and forms a fog.
