This is always a good start to the morning. Deer flies were certainly plentiful as I started hiking. It didn’t take too long when the hoot of a Great Horned Owl caught my attention as it glided out of a tree into deeper woods. A fresh scat pile left by a bobcat kept me alert.
Not sure what kind of bird this was. I will check it out later in the week.
Walking a cart road I caught movement in the distance heading my way.
I really thought this doe was going to literally brush my side.
She was about five yards from me when she jumped and turned effortlessly before disappearing into the distant woods.
