Post by: WonkyWapiti on September 05, 2009, 09:42:36 PM: Man these are some of my all time favorite Boneaddict photos! It may be due to I have elk on the brain and just saw a nice herd with a big bull bugling and some nice satellites in my hunting area. Frickin sweet Bone!!!

You guys might have seen how I blew this stalk. Lil Bone posted a pic of it in "inthe background" I think. I'll go steal it and pos tit here. I kicked a damn blue heron out on the side of the river and it flew right over his head. Made him drop his chew and head for the trees. I stood there with my mouth open instead of snapping pics, but Lil bone nailed one. I have to admit, it was unbelievable to watch.

I wish Longtat!

Post by: boneaddict on September 06, 2009, 06:28:11 AM: I think I'd have dropped my chew too if one of those flew between my antlers. Nice capture Lil Bone.

Post by: Bronson on September 08, 2009, 02:51:18 PM: Those are awesome pics. Seems to me that he has been hanging out too much with some swamp donkeys.
Title: Re: River Bull
Post by: dreamingbig on September 09, 2009, 07:05:37 AM: I think the shots are Bugle worthy... I would put them in there. Excellent job! I like the shot with his head raised and the grass and water hanging the best.
Title: Re: River Bull
Post by: boneaddict on September 09, 2009, 08:51:07 AM: I'll send them some shots and see if they like them. Thanks guys for your compliments. I hope to take alot more in the next two weeks. I hope you guys are ready for some WASHINGTON action. They may not be the best bulls in the west, but hopefully you'll like the local flavor. I have a two week photo safari coming up and most of its local. I might adventure as far as Idaho, but doubt it.
