Birds & Bucks at The Honey Hole- Pic Heavy
« on: September 10, 2010, 09:33:46 PM »
Went for another walk this afternoon to try out a few of the cane yelpers I put together. Even thought I didn't think they sounded that great the turkeys didn't mind. The were clucking & yelping back and came out to see me. I could see a bunch still in the woods but I had a few brave souls checking me out. I will post photos of the calls when they are finished- don't  ban me Porter!

As I was walking out and about to go through a field I noticed a few deer grazing. I didn't count but I'm guessing there were about 30+ deer in the bunch. It's the most bucks I have seen in one spot. There were 5 really nice ones and several 6 point and under bucks.

Bloomington, IL - it's actually a pretty boring town and I have to escape to the woods all the time

I'd love to live in an area where access to wildlife like that is so available.  Its probably hours away from where I live, but on the other hand we do have white sand, palm trees, blue-green water, and bikinis... So I reckon it all works out!

Great pics..
