Sloppy, but hunters busy

In the morning the pens were icy and slippery; it was foggy and generally dicey , a day for Sorels and Yaktrax. But, there were close rifle shots at 7AM, setting the tone for a restrictive day. The house dogs went out with me to feed the deer and I took a trail walk with one dog on lead (Timber). There were coyote and fox prints on the trail, very few deer prints. The trail camera has a new nice fox photo.

But, later in the day the doe with two fawns finally did come in. The little buck and little doe fawns enjoyed the apples and corn. I hadn't seen them for a bit so was glad to see they are making it.

This season is long for dogs, but they're being very good, enjoying a few extra treats along the way.
