Second Time Around

On Monday evening, 12-6, we found my favorite buck, Dark, tending a doe. Two other bucks were hanging in the area and Dark was running back and forth keeping them at bay. Unbelievably, their behavior certainly indicated that at least one doe did not breed in Nov. This buck was injured early in Nov. and was not a major player during the rut, but he was putting on the show that evening. DD

After our club meeting a few of us were discussing the use of photoshop to create visual effect. Here is an example of an image created in an attempt to communicate the sense of awe I recently experienced witnessing the flight of tundra swans passing by in the moonlight.

It has been a while since we posted last but as Gordon just said the rut activity has been nothing but great. I have personally been on a deer stand for 50 years now and on Nov 18th I was able to witness a REAL buck fight for the first time. Some of the pics are not what you would call quality, but under the circumstances Mary did a great job. Yours truly was so excited that I got some good video of trees. We posted a short video on our web site @ http://www.wildlifephotographybymhd.com DD
