So what am I seeing here??

After being annoyed by the turkeys for a couple of hours this morning Louann and I went and picked up 2 of our game cams that we'd left out Thursday. What you are seeing is from one of them. For reference I attached a third picture from it so you could get a better feel for distances.

And yes, those turkeys are still walking about as of this morning. In fact as they exit stage right and cross the ditch they are now safe on state land where there is no hunting.......but they'll be back.

I'm seeing deer.
And they know it's out of season, too.
What are you seeing?

The one that is further away......very fat......pregnant?

In the last few days we seen 10 or so deer on the lease, no fawns yet.

That may be why it looks so large for our area.....

Those would be deer. a four legged herbivore commonly hunted for food and sport through out the world.

The last picture would be of turkeys. Common through many parts of the world, they are particularly in North America. In the United States, they consumed annually at a celebratory dinner, usually in conjunction with football.

Do you prefer to roast the football, or smoke it?

Them's those little "dog deer", bswiv.

Florida Coastal Whitetail, if you ask me.

If you collect all 3 you might have a meal.
