His Frosty Kingdom

We spotted this buck about 100 yards away, and I stopped the car to snap this photo. It’s that time of year when the frost blankets the freshly harvested fields, and the deer are thinking about the next generation.

It is getting cold .. and the frost is back. I guess winter is on the way.

Cleanup Crew

They took the soy beans and I think the deer are on cleanup duty. They were caught in the act.

Where Is Mom

One day early this week we saw three fawns. Two of them were at one location, the other a few miles away at a second location. In both cases there was no mom .. MIA mom.

No Fear?

This was an interesting expeience. This buck was just off the trail. Shortly after I shot this photo we walked by him. It was just a few feet between us but he ignored us. I actually find that concerning. A bit more fear of humans is likely better for his longivity.
