Beds and rubs.

Unread postby Zap » Fri Jan 13, 2012 10:04 am

First snow of the winter, just a dusting.
Went out and looked around a public land spot.



Both rubs are waist hight.

Two beds on a rub line.

Other single beds.

These were part of a doe bed group.
They were too spread out to get in one pic.

The snow makes it easier to see where they laid down for sure.

I enjoy tracking in a fresh snow and seeing how that deer moved around. 8-)

Great pics Marty. I love seeing brush and sign pics.

Nice!!! 8-) Just curious, the first picture in the single beds part...did you find hair in that bed? It kinda looks like a deer or something was more like clawing or pawing at the ground for food, if not that is a big bed :shock: 8-)

Yeah there was hair in that.

There was another that looked like that and also had hair, I saw a few more than what I posted.
