Hi All
Friday was Keji Loon Nest day and it was a fun time.
Afterwards a drive through the Park seemed in order.
Just as I reached the Rogers Brook parking area
a doe crossed the road just in front of me. I stopped
for safety reasons and a buck soon crossed behind her.
A nice rack of horns he had but no record seter.
When he got to the edge of the woods he spied a small fire tree and he
used it to rub his horns. Made a mess of the tree. Next he walked a few
steps
and pawed the ground - made dirt fly - while he chewed a banch over his
head.
Probably urinated at the time but I couldn't see.
Then he walked up to the parking area and the doe got bored and
wandered away.
He soon followed.
I have seen a lot of scrapes on trees and on the grounnd but it was the
first time
for me that I saw a buck actually making them.
Enjoy the fall
Paul
