Bow hunting only areas are still open. I'm done for the day I have retirement luncheon at Stanley that I have to attend at 11:30. So two doe and a yearling just before I got down and ready to leave. Try to go back out on Friday

It was a good sit, saw three does at 70 yards. Unfortunately one decided to bed down after going back out to 90 yards and the others followed. Plenty of pictures again just after daylight and just before.

For those of you who get busted on the ground by white tail deer follow the link above. One day for fun I stalked 5 deer on the ground to 30 yards behind that white tail decoy, wind in my favor, they did not even question my presence after acknowledging me. I spent 20 minutes observing the calm deer going about their business. It was fun to say the least.
