Happy Holidays
I was not about to tempt fate by saying Merry Christmas just quite yet. Who knows by how much they would thin the herd if I said it before the proper time.

Home From Hunting...
...and once again I returned home bringing with me only my memory of this year's laughter of the deer. As opposed to my hunting trip in crossbow season, a couple o weeks ago when I saw three deer and got two missed shots at a decent buck I had seen then, I saw zero deer during the first three days of the rifle season. I did not even spook one nor did any of the other hunters who passed me in the woods drive any my way (at least none to be seen by me).
The only game I saw this trip was a single gray squirrel. I also saw several chipmunks (one within 5 yards of me, sitting there for about 5 minutes until I shooed it off). Also saw a lot of crows, a flock of Canada geese, got a glimpse at a vole or something that small that scampered off under the leaf litter, and a small flock of chickadees (always nice to see them flittering about me without noticing me or at least not paying me any mind) because I know I am not seen as a threat and must be doing something right. Still though, not right enough to see a deer or bear was I this time around.
Oh well, the season is not closed yet and if I get the chance I am going back to the same place in hopes that the buck I saw during the crossbow season will still be around and waiting just for me either to laugh at me or get blasted by me.
All the best,
