Well I was planning on hunting the evening hunt in hopes or scoring on my bday but that never happened...I was up all night with my girl being sick and now she is in the hospital. I got a break and needed to unwind so I hit the woods. I started to sit but just ended up falling asleep so i got up and scouted around a bit with the bow.
Took some pix for ya guys and I also have a question about these shrubs. I'm curious if deer will eat these shrubs in the following 3 pix. Bare in mind this is in the heart of the pines!

Yeah Tom, the deer will eat that stuff when other food is getting scarce. Good luck.
They are rhododendrens. Nice box turtle. Don't see too many anymore.
I hope your girl is allright, I spent all last week in ICU with my uncle and its not fun. I pray your family is okay.

Tom during Winter bow when there's snow on the ground you can see deer tracks all around the Rhodies. In the back at "Bear Alley" There's acres of them.
