The First New Pictures of the Year
There are now a lot of signs in the woods hinting towards autumn and the beginning of bow season. Ginseng plants are beginning to burst with red ripe berries, squirrels are cutting in the walnut trees, the full buck moon has come and gone, the leaves on the buckeye trees are turning yellow and falling, and the first pictures on the trail cameras are beginning to roll in.
August and September are the two longest months of the year though. For me they seem to last an eternity. But, that's okay -- there is still much to do. There is gear to prepare, plans to set, new locations to scout, trail cameras to place, and target practice is in need of taking precedence over everything.
This coyote looks like a drowned water dog, but with the temperatures we have been having I'm sure he is enjoying himself.
There is nothing like hunting a water crossing and hearing the sounds of a deer's hooves clanking loudly on the stones and water splashing to get the heart pumping.
