I did not put up my camera until late in the season. Off just this one camera, I have over a thousand pic over a two week period (30 sec. interval, I love watching the shows).
On this date, 12-26-09, I had just poured #50 of corn in the lane in front of the camera about 5:30 PM. The big deer, a 12 point if you count the stickers coming out of the bases below the brow tines, came out about 8:00 PM and just stood in that same spot until the picture shown at 8:28 PM. After he did this he stayed around with does an other bucks for almost an hour. Very peaceful, everybody was just eating.
The second picture is of a little 4 point who came out about 11:15 PM and he had his head down and mouth open, looking like he was grunting. The next picture he looks relaxed, then this picture of him doing the same thing as the 12 point in about the same spot, looking the same way.
What does this behaviour show? Any ideas anybody?
