Bet You a Dollar You'll Say "OH! MY GOD," or, Something on that Order

I'm up in the deep woods of Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains … the fishing has been good … the photo ops have been better … anyway …

Bet you a dollar.

We've been seeing more fawns around our area too, on the roads many are too mangled to tell that they are a fawn except for the spots in the fur. The fawns also have that instinct to lay down and don't move, which is kind of unfortunate for the fawn especially when it comes to cutting hay, one 20 acre field yielded 7 fawns crushed through the hay conditioner and repairs to the machine.  You didn't get a OMG from me, we are polluted with deer in our area.

It's said that the Deer never look up.  Most times, neither do the predators.

Great shot Mac.  Was it telephoto or did you place the camera in the right spot?  Good luck with the Bear cub.

Doctors without Boarders.

Perrie,

Why would doctors take in boarders??  Most of them make enough money these days so they don't have to take on the side business of being innkeepers too. LOL

OK, so I'm a smartass.  I've never denied it.  Works out OK as long as I remember that the difference between a smartass and a dumbass is razor thin.

Still in the woods and have taken some very interesting animal behavior shots which I will post tonight or tomorrow as I will be taking more pictures and fishing today.

One troubling thing ... Mountain Laurel all over but no butterflies!

Odd about the butterflies. Hope it is not a "plague".

While fishing, do you catch and release and/or save some for dinner?

I put them all back … use barbless hooks for easy release …

I can understand that.

When young, fishing was one of our "grocery stores". We kept them and frid up the first couple we caught right there. Fresh perch or small mouth can't be accurately described by me.

It took years to get the small and taste of restaurant and store bought fish past my nose and taste buds. I think the processing methods helped improve that situation.
