First fawn of the year
« on: May 26, 2012, 10:35:43 PM »
Heard our first fawn of the year calling for momma in the back yard this evening.  Tried to get out and find it for some pics, but it quit calling before we got close.

Saw a doe and what looked like last years fawns on my way to work last week then Thursday night was taking out the trash after dark and spooked a deer right in my driveway.  I think I'm going to like my new neighborhood. 
Such is life in the West and the further West the more the such.

Had some elk in the pasture this morning.  The bulls gave a great start and the cows look like they are ready to explode!

I've been watching for them, I figured I still had a few days...

We must reject the idea that every time a law's broken, society is guilty rather than the lawbreaker. It is time to restore the American precept that each individual is accountable for his actions.

This is a great time of year to hike and see these little ones just showing up. I watched a cow give birth one year. Saw some other little ones on the ground through a spotting scope.

Found this little guy while checking cameras Monday.  He was 50 feet from the camera and I still didn't have any pics.  I had my 2 year old son on my shoulders and almost stepped on him.  Cute little fella for sure.

This is all we saw of the first fawn....   :'( :'(

Damn predators anyway...

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

That sucks Huntbear, ours have it pretty good with no predators.  Well, maybe the occasional eagle....  Saw one a couple nights ago, they are so dang cute!

The Doe's at my cabin in Winthrop this weekend looked more like blimps and there starting to kick last years fawns away so they must be getting ready to drop.
