Last Look For Antlers

I spent the morning looking for antlers from the top of Bear Hill down to the reservoir shoreline. From the top of Bear Hill you can see the reservoir through the tree's. I bushwhacked so  did not bring my SLR. That was a mistake. When I arrived at the Gate ,a  large moose met me. It ran about forty yards ,stopped and just looked back at me for nearly ten minutes. Working my way down the ridge I had a deer walk  to within twenty five yards of me. Shortly after I jumped another deer and watched it bound away.

While sitting at the reservoir I watched a immature eagle fly by.

Hiking back up Bear Hill I came across this Eastern Red-spotted Newt. Not an uncommon site. I thought it looked neat crawling along this log.

Ticks were relentless. !
