Those pictures were taken on the Malheur Refuge, approximately 50 miles south of Burns, Oregon.

Luv tose pics.  I drove from Kettle Falls to Walla Walla yesterday.  Saw about 100 deer, but only 2 bucks.  Neither of them were swelled up very much, and neither were pushing does.  I think we're still a few weeks out from the rut here...

It won't be long, some bucks are already chasing.  This guy wouldn't even stop to have his picture taken.



Some would stop to smell the ???



And some were moving in with the does already.

Wow, great pics and awesome bucks.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

Oh man- You guys are killing me!!!  Just flat out awesome photography.  Will be leaving this Saturday, to get a stand up, for the late season.  Hopefully the rut will be kicking in.
