I was set-up watching the downwind side of a big pasture hunting coyotes yesterday.
I did a series of loud calls on a predator call when I heard something running in directly behind me. I turned just in time to see a mature doe slide to a stop less than a yard from me!
I'm not sure who was more startled? I quickly reached for my video camera on the tripod next to me and got a little up-close video as she was figuring out what I was.(camo pants, plaid shirt, headnet).
I'll try and post a link to the video later.
It's amazing the things you'll see spending time in the woods.
