Looks like he's bearly hanging on.



While scouting for moose today we came upon a beauty of a buck bedded in a stand of aspen. He was alert and looking at us, his high 6 x 6 point antlers shimmering in the backlit sunlight. As I dug a camera from my pack he trotted across through the meadow and disappeared up the hill.








Two minutes later another buck came running from across the meadow to stop exactly where the first buck had been bedded. He's a little younger with 5 x 5 points including brow tines. Note his right ear has been torn, perhaps in a bout with the previous buck.

Last weekend I visited friends for banding in Sedona where the hosts have groups of javelina moving through their yards. They always fascinate me and someday I'm going to hunt them.

My fishing buddy stuck this yesterday at Spinney. I got a few in the mid 20's but this was 41 inches. Absolute brute.

Damn ... Trolling or casting?

Here is a couple of a deer that has been passing through my yard lately. One from my next door neighbor to the south and by the neighbor across the street. He usually cruises through my back yard because there isn't a fence that he would have to hop over.

This is the north west corner of Evans and Santé Fe.

Out for a walk along the creek this morning and saw this. One of the bigger nests I've found.

Well I've never seen one that big. Thanks for the pic!

Yep, that's what I said. Hehehe

Mrs BG took this while out for a walk today along the river near the house:

It's great to have moose around. In winter they wander farther from lakes and river areas. Do they come up around your house too?
