What you'll see when your in the woods. I wasn't feeling well yesterday morning but I decided to go hunt anyways. So I sat a spot that I had previously scouted a while back. It's where 2 small drainages create a natural funell with a small ridged leading to the intersection. I've seen deer cross here before. Around 8:00 I hear coyotes sound off in the distance and hear some answer close by on the property. A few minutes later, all of a sudden a decent buck comes off the ridge on a dead run and passes around 60 yrds. Shortly after a coyote follows but stops on the edge of the small clearing. A few seconds after that a black coyote appears and follows where the deer went and disappears. So I give a little squeak and the first one turns and works my way but stops around 40 yrds to investigate some brush. All of a sudden the black coyote apears at 10 yrds and is crossing in front of me. As I start to draw he sees me move and bolts away. The first one is around 25 yrds now and doesn't know what's going on and stops broad side looking my way. So I turn on him and let go. Missed. Just barely! The dumb thing runs a little ways and stops and starts coming back. He keeps looking my way but can't find me and quriosity is getting the best of him. I manage to get another arrow nocked as he starts to circle. But he sees me as i start to draw and skedaddles! I got the whole thing on video but I can't figure out how to get the video off the cam and post it here.
Anyway, a little while later I see another black coyote about 150 yrds down the creek. ( probably the same one)
A few minutes after that I see a bobcat about 100 yrds off.
Then about 15 min later I see a BiG owl come floating over head silently and crash into a tree at full speed and begins flapping it's wings and takes off with a young squirrel squealing like crazy! I hadn't noticed the squirrel nest over head but he did! It was a beautiful and wild morning and It just goes to show you, you never know what your gonna see! And I truly believe that buck was headed my way!
