Lights. I have 25 of them around the mountain shack - looks like a disco. I want to see the lion who kills me.
Enhancement seems appropriate then. To my knowledge I’ve never had one of those stinkers on my back step but….,,,,, I’ve seen one on both of my neighbors steps over the years.
 
To all the two and three year old bucks in CO, time to get your act together. Saturday is coming and the Busch Lite in the center consoles will not let you get any older staring at trucks on the side of road like you have been doing lately. View attachment 91157
Yup. These guys won’t make it another week. The hunters have started showing up, and lots of new glass hanging out the truck windows here. The rifles out the windows are what piss me off :mad:

lol....already got one shot off....
He actually grew a little spike on that side. Was in velvet and everything. I figured he injured it very early. It’s fairly common for one of these guys to be limping around at some point in the summer.

My buddy shot one in the horn one time. Went down like he had a piano dropped on him. Got up and ran off while we were high fivin.

NT’s right - may save his life if only for a year..

Blue is your little heard growing?
Most of the critters around here are a result of irrigation showing up 30 years or so ago. I think they’ve gotten about as populous as the farmers or the fish cops want (cars, disease), and CPW is increasing doe tags in an effort to cut things back. So shrinking I guess.

One thing that is growing is the turkeys. We never had them before 5 years or so ago, and now there are a bunch. Our little resident flock DOUBLED this year. I’ll try to get a good one posted soon.

Meanwhile, turkeys in the russian olives.

The deer with the handle bar spikes has the face of a doe. Does that deer have male plumbing?
Thanks for all the nice pictures you post! ??

I never thought to look. If I see him again I’ll try to see. The ones that aren’t dead are pretty skittish these days.
 
Seems like whenever the elk start showing up in numbers, it's to the detriment of mule deer. Happening in Wyoming and I also saw it happening in Colorado this past week. Nice view in any case!
 
What happens when your driving along in deep snow drifts and you forget to shut off traction control. These new trucks try to tell you how to drive, they never included four foot plus drifts to plow through in the programming. View attachment 92792
You need a winch….and a looooong rope. That looks like my driveway a couple times a year.

I still have a few pics left, but the deer fun is pretty much over. They start shooting the does today.

Here’s how you know for sure the deer are gone. View attachment 93142
To bad, must be fun watching them throughout the year. Think they run off and hide, or did they hit the dirt? Seemed like a good herd and if they come back every year some of them must be finding a safe place to hide.

Almost all the 4x4 types get whacked. There might be one or two of those dozen or so that I’ll ever see again (One this morning that came within minutes of a roadhunter). The forkies are next years crop of “mature” bucks, so next year should be ok.
