The Bucks stop here

The Bucks stop here

Went to the kitchen for a cup of coffee, the dogs ran to the back door looking to go out for their morning run.  Looked out quick before I turned the door handle, we have to look quickly out in the deer yard, Hannah will bark at the deer if there are any out there, Zeb on the other hand will sit on the hill and just watch them. We always look quick before we allow them out to ensure no one is out, if there are deer out we hold the dogs in for a while, the deer are generally not in the yard for more than 10 minutes or so in the morning.

This morning there were two bucks out in the deer yard, looks like a 4 and a 5 pointer.   I ran to grab the camera and caught these two bucks grabbing a bite off the deer block and licking the salt lick.  I don't remember ever seeing bucks out in the yard other than the deer cams catching a pic every now and then.  This makes 3 bucks in a couple weeks we've seen.
