First Deer Hunt - 2012



The three of us went to Louise for our first deer hunt of the season.  Our box stand was blown over in a recent storm, so we were relegated to sitting behind the stand instead of inside of it.  It was a slow deer day as we only saw one, but on the walk in Charlie found matching beaver jaws, duck feathers, we saw a black squirrel, lots of ducks, spiders and other creatures.  On the walk out, we stopped at the edge of the some woods and heard something walking toward us in the woods just at dark.  Our hearts raced as we tried to see what was coming closer and closer our way - a deer, bear, hawg, coyote - and closer and closer until out appeared an armadillo.  We were a little disappointed, but entertained by Charlie chasing it away.
