Had some roosies join me while I was in the backyard getting some stumping practice with my bow.

(Sorry about the pic quality, picture was taken with my cell phone.)

Isn't that a great sight?! Very cool. Might have to have some critter control if they get out of hand.

We have a couple of elk herds that visit our backyard on a regular basis. The first is a herd composed primarily of 30 to 35 cows and a few spike bulls. The second is a much smaller bachelor group, of which the bulls in the pic above are undoubtedly a part of. Among that bachelor group is a magnificent bull that would easily go P&Y if not B&C (I'll try to get pics the next time he shows up).

Oh, man.  Maybe someday.  Though, I have been seeing whitetail that give a promise of next year.

That is cool, were the quivering in fear or laughing when they left your yard?  I know most Rosies look at me and laugh as they disappear into the thick brush.

Way to throw them off.  Soon they'll think archery is like golf, totally harmless.

I doubt they were laughing, however, there very well could have been a snicker....

Really cool pic.  What a sight...  Thanks for posting...

Ever seen that chin quivering a cat gets to doing while looking out the window at birds?
