Yes, there's some big antlers out there (still in velvet) both whitetail and muley's.

Looks like a great area and you've taken good advantage of it.

Carp arent ugly, they are cool fish.

The deer are in the middle of their rut at the Arsenal.

Wife shot this one

peteg1 · 20th of November 2011 (Sun)

Two more from today. Wife shot the big guy and framed the last one.

Need some help here to ID this one, I did a lot in PP to get a better look at him. Seen him on top of a tree with a male buffalo and coyote’s right under him.

How big was he? Looks like a first year juvie Bald or Golden eagle. Were there other eagles around? The parents will leave these guys in a tree while they go out hunting. They are usually pretty good about staying in the tree they are left in. Better than a human kid would mind his parents.

It's hard to judge how big it was. The FL was 400mm w/over 100% crop. There are eagles there and I was told some young one's too, so maybe.

canonloader · 22nd of November 2011 (Tue)

Well, if it was bigger than a chicken, it was probably an eagle.

Eagles are starting to come in, seen 9 in two big trees today.

Little PP

Nice set of shots and variety of wildlife...

Jomax · 11th of December 2011 (Sun)

Love the Muley shots

peteg1 · 11th of December 2011 (Sun)

Thanks all, seen a Ferruginous Hawk today (I believe) and the second one I’ve seen before but still have no clue what it is, a hawk of some kind.

No Idea

peteg1 · 11th of December 2011 (Sun)

Found my answer in the “Bird Forum", it's a Northern Harrier Hawk.

Coyote on one of the frozen lakes.
