Almost missed this

After changing the sd card on the camera and freshening up the mineral lick I had this doe stop in and check out what I had done.  I almost missed how quickly she showed up after I had left.

I guess it just shows you how much you miss when you use a quad instead of just walking.  I have bumped this doe and her fawn from the area (while walking)the last 4 times I have changed out the sd cards.  They usually just run about 50 yards and stop and watch me.  The last 2 times the doe didn't even blow.

Geez, you better beat feet out of there or they will be licking your boots.

Almost like baiting bear. They wait for ya to leave and in they come.

She is a very young doe and not yet to wise.  You could call it baiting if there were jelly donuts involved.  I started this mineral lick this spring and the hole is over a foot deep.  I would fill up the sd card with over 2000 pictures in less than 3 weeks.  The mineral lick is less than 10 yards from a small watering hole.   The hole has since dried up and now the deer are not comming every day.  Lesson learned-Dig the water hole deeper.  We are planning to do it after deer season.
