This is the guy that I went up the mountain to try and find. He hasn't been around for several months,but I was kind of hoping to come across him. The weather was not good with lots of cloud, fog and high humidity.
I walked and rattled for 4 hours,but never saw a thing. None of the tracks were new and the walking was tough with about 6 inches of crusty snow on the ground.
I would like to see just how big that rack grew over the summer. Next time out, I will head for lower areas on the mountain. I doubt that anybody got him in bow season, as he is pretty wily. there are no current pictures as the day was really gloomy.
Oh, he's really beautiful! I'd love to see how much his rack has grown, too!
ReplyDeleteOh, Ian... he's so beautiful... I hope he is fine.
ReplyDeleteMy husband is impressed at the size of this deer. Nice.

I remember these pics. What a shame you couldn't track him down and surprise us with a winter white glow around this beautiful fella.

Deer are one of my favorite animals. They are so magnificent and graceful. I hope your deer is just busy being a big beautiful buck somewhere where he has his little flock of does.
