Last month my friend Todd Gregory and I went out to my property to do some chain saw work. Down in one part of the property several old bull pines had died due to flooding by beavers. The pines were huge and were blocking access to an open area the I knew the deer were using. These logs were right along the river and made traveling thru that area very difficult. We simply cut about 3 foot sections of the logs just to make a trail for the deer, bear and moose to use. Last week I went in and made a mineral lick right at the opening of one of the log cuts. This morning Laura and I went out there to check the camera and to plant an apple tree. There were deer tracks in the lick and a picture on the camera. Here is what was there. One of the deer is obviously a  buck and I have reason to believe the other is, as well. There is a pair of them that that we played chess with last season. I think the deer at the licks are the same two in the pic from the previous season.

 

And from last Fall.

Been a long hard winter in the Cascades, this old boy looks a bit lean to my eye...

 

Think I got this Tcam straightened up when I checked it the other day...

 

Had quite a few spikes and fork bulls last summer, looks like a good crop of young branch bulls survived for another year...

What's that Far Side cartoon about the cows always standing up on hind legs until they see us coming?

 

 

 

Hate to see the Hair Loss Syndrome show up in the mountains!  

 

This doe and her twins look good and healthy though!

 

I hope this is the last winter scene I get until next November!

Hey, Wayne...we busted a wad of 8 bucks out of the SC short pines in MARCH with both horns on them including a 22 inch wide 8 pointer....

Those Mississipi boys have a December/January rut if I remember right.

Last Friday I made a little turkey hunt and on the way back to the truck I found a nice trail. So I went back with a trailcam and hung it to see what might go by. I didn't have the right wrench for my lag bolts, so I just wrapped a Python Cable around my "apb" and straightened up one corner with a stick. When I left I walked by it...

 

Just 41 minutes later a bear came by, and of course he had to go knock the stick out from under the box...

 

Then later that same afternoon a nice bobcat came strolling by...

 

I pulled the Tcam and moved it yesterday, but think I need to put another back on this trail.

These are from a couple of my other Tcams...

 

 

 

 

 

This yearling has HLS (hair loss syndrome). It's infested with a lice that causes them to scratch and chew themselves crazy during the winter. Quite often it affects the fawns and they die from the elements before the weather warms up. The lice is believed to have spread down the coast from Puget Sound in Washington and originated from animals brought over from Asia.
