Truly amazing Deer and photography. And what really impresses me is not a ear tag to be seen.

" High fence, low fence, over the fence, no-a-fence, all about d-fence... pappy Legal tis legal, we got HF just down the road, need go take some pic's & post...  illegal ta  shoot...  on the pic's... Used ta carry a cheap canon with SD card on me hunts...  not near the quality of pic's.. Archery like ta take pic's, outa bow range, if they get in range, like ya'll, up ta shooter... Remember as a kid riding in back seat behind dad, could remove a tin plate laid down over hole on floorboard, & watch the road speed by,  & watchen for deer, pheasants & such on the long trips ta grandparents & aunts & uncles... Each deer tis a Trophy... Again Thanks for sharing..

Excellent pictures of amazing animals... as usual. These are the most efficient killers of the avian world Iâve ever seen. Devastating to quail, but you have to admire their tactics and abilities.

I donât know the technical name. We call them sharpshins... to see them stalk, flush, and ambush a quail is impressive!

I donât know the technical name. We call them sharpshins... to see them stalk, flush, and ambush a quail is impressive! The âhuntâ is as follows: - fly from tall object to tall object, using each as a âtower blindâ - spot the covey - GLIDE from tall object to a low branch on the closest tree to the covey - wait for the right opportunity, then let out 3-5 high-pitched screams to flush the covey - once the covey flushes, pick a bird and follow it until it sets its wings for landing - the sharpshin will either get them on final descent, or just as they hit the ground. I have never seen one miss once they make it to the screaming stage. They are CRAZY efficient!!!

Itâs a Kestrel.
Sharp-shins are a completely different raptor, though they do look similar.

Cant find the words to describe. Those are some of the best looking bucks I have ever seen and the photography as well. Super impressed.  Thanks for sharing.
At some point in life its time to quit chasing the pot of gold and just enjoy the rainbow. FR Keep your gratitude higher than your expectations. RWH
