Just Saw A Buck Pass By The Office Window

[DEEKAYPEE8569]

I'm getting my stuff together to head home and out of the corner of my eye I see a buck (a 6 pointer maybe) pass by the office window and trot off into the field.

Hmmm.......I guess we should REALLY start paying attention NOW, huh? Maybe the rutting is gonna start early this year; or is it really about time anyway? I don't know. I'm not a deer hunter.

The time is now. The does usually come in estrus during very early November, and during the days leading up to that time it is common to see bucks in unusual places. Some of these bucks are looking for does, and some of them have gotten their butts kicked by larger bucks and are now looking for a new area to inhabit.

I often wondered about that. We keep hearing where the buck stops, which is fine. However, it would seem to be a good idea to be able to get him along the way once in awhile seeings how everyone else is likely waiting for him to stop.

I had to blow my horn at one at the corner of Cove Point Rd/Little Cove Point Rd this morning to get it to do "something". It just stood there by the road and I was stopped in the road. I knew that as soon as I started moving again, it would dart out. After the second honk, it decided to turn tail and head back into the woods.

I usually get up in the middle of the night for a glass of water, on Wednesday night as I walked down the stairs I spotted a deer in my planter right in front of the house. I slowly walked down and spotted the 3 does, all eating the grass in front of my porch. I grabbed my camera, snapped the pic.... nothing but the reflection of the glass

I thought he had a look of "where in the hell am I?"

There are a lot of deer in that area. Usually see a few of them dead around this time of year. More so since they bulldozed the area to build more houses.
I especially get aggravated at tailgaters because if they aren't paying attention and you have to stop quick...
I hit a deer once in upstate NY. Once was enough, TYVM!

Wait, you mean they're NOT sleeping on the side of the road

Someone lied to me
