Got out with my camera a little bit this weekend. Nice to see the deer out and in their summer coats. Little guy following momma... And lastly a ruffy... Take care Dave

My buddy works for the county - this time of year he does a lot of mowing the roadways. He came across these little guys this past week. Pics taken with a Sony S60 homebrew trailcam. Went back with my DSLR but the pups never showed up. Hope to get some with my Nikon before they leave the den. Take care Dave

Taken on one of our last outings this year.I got my apprentice falconry permit this year and my sponsor and I trapped my redtail hawk on October 30'th and had her trained and hunting with me in a little over 4 weeks. She learned to hunt with my buddies beagle and man what a team they were. As soon as she would hear him start sounding off - she would fly and get up in front of him and wait for him to flush the rabbit. He'd be a little upset everytime she'd catch the rabbit, I was able to catch him in mid bark telling her what he thought about her catching his Fuzzie. We had a great year and I can't wait to do it all over again this fall. A few other pics from this year.. Take care Dave

Had a good few days with my trail cams this past week.. All taken with a S600 homebrew.. Take care Dave

Got three different bucks hitting the same scrape. Little guy checking out the same scrape.. from my apple tree.. And a couple coyote shots... Take care Dave

Thanks guys - These were all taken with a Sony S600 homebrew with a Yeti control board.

Checked my cams this morning and had a young 8 pointer freshen up his scrape last night.. And a few other little guys up the creek a ways. This guy just lost his velvet. A cropped shot of the licking branch. Take care Dave

Thanks guys. Geno - all these were hand held. I do use a mono pod I use when I'm in my blind though.

Had to do some heavy editing to get these pics to come out at all and they're still not that good. Fog was heavy.. Sniffing me .. A couple resident geese from the lake.. Deer flies driving her nuts... On the move... And a spider on our way to check the trail cams.. All were taken with a Nikon D300 DSLR and a 200-400 zoom lens.. Take care Dave

Headed to check my cams the other morning and came across this speed bump in the road... And the sunrise from yesterday morning...

Thanks guys - these were all taken with a Sony S600 homebrew cam with a Yeti control board.

Had quite a seen on my trail cam this morning. Not very many bears around this area at all. Looks like he's liking the apples too.. From the same tree that night... Take care Dave

Got a nice head on shot of the wide guy before dusk last night. I think this pic turned out nice,, some others... And a curious little fella...

Finally got some nice closeups of a nice and clean, wide 8 pointer I've been watching. Wish he had a little more tine lenght, but he's still nice. Another 8 point from the same apple tree. They are starting to hit the apples trees already around here All taken with a Sony S600 Homebrew and a Yeti control board. Take care Dave

Finally had a day off of work last night so I stayed at my camp at the lake and got up early for a drive around to see if we'd see anything. Had a good storm last night - made for real foggy conditions this morning.. Seen a couple bucks and some does and fawns. Had to do some heavy editing to get these pics to come out at all and they're still not that good. Fog was heavy.. Another doe from this morning...I like the spiderweb over her butt.. Sniffing me .. A couple resident geese from the lake.. Deer flies driving her nuts... On the move... And a spider on our way to check the trail cams.. Hope everyone has a great week. Take care Dave

Hey Kieth - no Outpost for me on Saturday - I was at a get together on Fish hill. I'll have to catch up with you the next time your up.

Wooly - Where ya been? Bout time you got around here. Sweet - now we got another photo nut to post some pics.. ;D Welcome aboard..

Finally got some pics worth posting. I'm running 6 trail cams now and got 8 points on three of the six. I think the closeup ones of the 8 pointer in the field turned out great. Looks like he's about done growing while the others look like they have a ways to go yet. All taken with a Sony S600 homebrew with a Yeti control board. And a field with a bunch feeding. Take care Dave

Seen a dandy 8 pointer and others today on my way home from my camp at the lake. I wonder how much more he'll grow and if he'll sprout a couple more points. Any ideas? Thanks for looking. Them deer flies were terrible... And a few others from the past couple days. I hope to get some trail cam shots of that 8 pointer - more to come I hope Dave

Thanks guys - here's a couple more pics of the same deer a couple days later.

Cute little rascal... Take care' Dave

Thanks guys - these were all taken with a Nikon D300 and a Nikon 200-400 f/4 zoom lens.

Not a huge buck but a nice picture. Taken last night with a Sony S600 homebrew trailcam.
