Went for a walk....
Since it was so nice out, I went for a walk out in the woods just to poke around. I checked the perms, and they are still standing. I did find a clip of shells my daughter left in hers....kids...  :doah:

I walked quite a few deer trails looking for sheds, but, came up empty. Lot's of brown M&M's, but, no bone.

Some turkey feathers, squirrels and crows, is about all I saw. The snow is very little, with the exception of the shaded side of the hay field. Other than that, it was great to take a walk! Kinda strange for mid March and 60 degree weather, so, get out and enjoy it!

Re: Went for a walk....
i went out for a walk on thursday afternoon and it was gorgeous out. lots of droppings and trails, but no antlers. not really any pictures on the camera either  :scratch: . but was cool to hear there has been a cougar spotted a few different times in the area, tracks have been confirmed. this is in the west metro. victoria area. i didnt have any protection, so i stayed away from that part of the woods, kinda puts you on edge.

Re: Went for a walk....
Letz its hormonal...after the rut is done and all the bucks does are bred, hormonal levels drop and the horns fall off and a new set grows.  Most years this happens in January,  but I have seen 2 bucks with complete sets in April.  Apparently they were still breeding does.  I had asked a big game biologist and this was his reasons.

Re: Went for a walk....
a deer with a horn wouldn't shed it ever, since horns are life long.

antlers on the other hand...

ok.. just messing with you.  happy b-day by the way
