I used a ladder to put up a trail camera. When I came down the ladder banged against the tree and made quit a racket.  I walked about 20 feet to check the camera angle and this nice 8 pointer came running on the field to check me out.  He was spoiling for a fight and even started to advance towards me.  Then he decided I wasn't worth it and hopped across the field and started sniffing for does.
The first two pictures were taken while he was sizing me up. The others are frame grabs from the video I took of him crossing the field.
About 10 minutes after this two smaller bucks did the same thing. I'm guessing a hot doe had crossed the field when I wasn't looking.
