p.1 #1 · Cautious Mule Deer


Cautious Mule Deer

I saw a small patch of wrong color in the bush so I stopped and waited. When I looked with my binoculars I noticed a little movement. Time to wait and see what was coming out of the timber. Not a lot of light left in the day but I thought there was enough to try a few shots.

A pretty nice buck showed up.

#4
Everything seems OK so I will go and eat some dinner.

#5
He picked a open area to eat, but was still very cautious and kept raising his head.

#7
Another soft crow call and I got his attention.

Interesting story Roger on the part of spotting a patch of color that didn't belong. I think this is a trait you acquire after many years of being in the woods or brush and just having that sixth sense of something that doesn't belong. I often amaze myself at the color, movement or irregular patterns I pick up on and am rewarded by spotting something I would have passed up.

That is one gorgeous mule deer Roger, the colors in your area are so different than anything I see, the brush and evergreen and rocks all have a unique hue to them. Chalk one more up to that crow call, for a minute I thought an eagle was going to come flying out Nice set sir!

I am glad you brought the subject of developing a 6th sense. You are so right and I don't mention it very often cuz folks normally don't believe it. Some how many times you know and feel you need to look up or take that 3rd look in a bush cuz something is there.

Thanks Karl

Good stuff Roger! Oh the sixth sense as we are calling it sure does exist. If I'm out in the wild every little thing that is out of the norm, color, movement, sound raises my interest. You and Karl are so right.

Gotta get me a crow call!

Tim you and I are on the same page. I am thinking its a matter of learning to take advantage of it.
