    Great sit so far. Mink, turtles, ducks...

    Battery life is at 22% so I'm gonna lay low I case something goes down.

    I have to get back and look at it closer. Not sure which one it is. Doesn't help that his head is down.

    If he was standing there tonight it'd had been a 31 yd broadside shot up the creek :tu:

    Lots of splashing in the creek tonight, but I'm afraid it was mostly turtles and frogs.

    Not sure if I'll make it out before the weekend or not. It'll be busy at the resort with a wedding, so it might be next week before I sit again.

    I know I'll be researching what conditions were like on the morning of the 22nd!

    I've confirmed it's Blade. I'm 100% sure. It's funny how different a buck's rack can look depending on what angle you see it from.

    Straight on with his head down, he's not nearly as impressive.

    Damn I want that guy.....

    Daylight pics in the late morning just a few days after a full moon! Good luck with your adventure in getting Blade.

    Well, decided to head back to the outlet again tonight. But not before pulling a couple cards from the killing pond.

    I have two videos uploading on the laptop. I'll post them if they finish. In the meantime...
