The Season of Velvet













































Last evening while sitting on the south deck catching up with Sharon and Blaine, a handsome four-point buck strolled out of the trees and into the yard, apparently unbothered by our loud talk and laughter. You can see by the presence of several bucks near my ladder stand in the cedar tree that the time of rubbings and scrapings is coming soon. Soon also the bucks will cease to congregate and go their separate ways in pursuit of that which makes them goofy and reckless.

Our deer-colored dog had better be careful.
