My wife and I returned to West Texas to visit my In-Laws for mothers day. I took the camera and got out of the house each morning pre daylight to see what was moving around. I took some long distance very low light photos that are poor quality. I'll post a few of a group of Axis that I found as well as a doe that's likely carrying twins. My wife took some photos of the wildflowers that are still hanging on! Later Folks, Baker

Great pics as usual!
Those axis are nice!
I hope to be able to shoot a nice mature axis buck one of these days!

Great pictures! Your wife's are best, of course, but that's a mighty fine group of axis. Any reason why you weren't chooting? No time? Bet you could sell axis meat in LA.

You are correct, I'm sure axis would be a hit in Louisiana. I took the Axis photos from a county road and I don't have permission to hunt or even be on the property so I just shot them with a camera from a long distance. I'm going Axis hunting in July and I hope to ground check a good one! Later buddy
