Another Fawn


My Facebook friend, Mike Persichini said he almost stepped on this one.  He looked down and there she was.

Beautiful Gobbler!

My Facebook friend, Mike Persichini of Michigan took this picture of a beautiful gobbler.  It almost looks like a painting.

BIG 8

"Big 8" now.

My Facebook friend, Mike Persichini named this deer, Big 8.  He said that Big 8 had a stick that was jammed into his leg during the rut. His leg swelled up real bad and he shed early. The stick broke off but part stayed in his leg. The swelling finally broke open and the rest of the stick fell out. He is on his way back to normal!  It is amazing how wild animals can adapt to injuries in the wild. 

"Big 8" last season.

I Hate When This Happens!


I had everything planned and had told my wife I would not be going to church with her on Sunday. My wife reminded me that Sunday was the Sabbath Day and hunting a trophy buck should not be part of the Sabbath.
1. I had scouted the area all summer.
2. I searched out the best location for my tree-stand....
3. I set it all up a month ahead of time.
4. I trailed the herd.
5. I picked out a trophy buck.
6. Two days before opening day I rechecked every aspect of the hunt.
7. Everything was in place.
8. Sunday morning, I woke up at 2 am.
9. I put on my camo, loaded my pack, set out for my stand.
10. This was destined to be an "Epic" hunt.
11. As I approached my deer stand, I called my wife and told her I had decided not to hunt on the Sabbath and would meet her at church.

The Sunday sermon was entitled, "The Lord Works In Mysterious Ways".

Bobcat

Picture of my bobcat that I took from the Arrowhead (tripod) Stand while deer hunting on the edge of the MS Delta on January 17, 2009, at the famous Christmas Place Plantation and Hunting Club.  I took only one shot and he ran like a scalded cat on a hot tin roof!  (Click on picture to enlarge)

Drove down an old back road today, and it looks like this little lady took up residence here. Photo by Stephen Price.
