BOW SEASON

9-16-09 The deer won the first day. I sat in a stand at plot 1.
I didn't get in the stand till 6:30 p.m. and some deer were feeding in the clover.
They ran into the woods and around 7:15 a very small fawn came out of the corn.
The deer won with Randy and Ed too.
I'm having trouble up loading pictures to the blog. All I have had on the cams are does and some of the same small bucks.
Dakota found the first brood of wild quail - they looked like about 6 weeks old. May have been 12 or so by plot 2.
9-30-09: I have hunted plot 2 twice from my duck blind and once across the road at Larry's and didn't see anything.
I have hunted plot 1 two times and have seen more deer but they were too far away and too small.
Three times this week I have seen quail in two diffent places: by the wetlands and down the back lane by plot 4. There were about 12 birds in the coveys.
The wood ducks haven't started to show up at Taylors flood ponds yet. He has blocked off the ponds and started flooding them.
I think I'll start catching water in mine soon.

SAVING FOR ED

Im going to catch him and tie him up for maybe another year or two for edClick on the picture and see the other side of his rack.

CAT

This cat may be going to waste some good mouse meat. Hope he's aiming high.
I finished up the outside of the blind. I'm going to cut some cedar trees now and finish bushing it.

LOOKS MEAN

Milton your cam had these picture. That buck looks mean.
I didn't see your stand but I didn't stay around long.
I'm going to put a cam across the road today.

ED'S CAM

Looks like only small bucks like to have their picture taken. Found these pictures on camera at field edge where plots 5&6 are.TThere are some pictures where the deer were too far from the flash - I bet they were the big ones. I cut some lanes through the food plots last evening, the deer seem to like it. There are alot of tracks and I saw a fawn on my lunch break at plot #4.above is at plot 3 and below at plot4
