| First Sighting of the Freak buck
in the summer of 2005 on August 3
I wondered if I would see him this year. His summer look is way different than his swelled neck, gray coat, big boy rut profile. He's lost a lot of weight and bulk. And my binoculars revealed something I couldn't see without them. He is hurt ... and recently too! Blood is slowly trickling out of his nose. And there are fresh cuts and scrapes on his neck, hip, in front of his rear leg, and on his belly. (But he acted ok, which is a good sign.) Here are pictures of him on the afternoon of Aug 3. |
