Does in the Turnips
Adult Doe Alert in Turnips
By Glen Wunderlich
Yesterday evening with temperatures hovering around 60 degrees, deer observation was a delight in Shiawassee County, Michigan. Horton Vision crossbow at the ready and plenty of action below my tree. All deer were antlerless with the exception of one rather frisky 6-point buck, who sucked down a mouthful of turnip leaves almost on the run. Equal time was spent making the females run away from him.
No photos of the yearling buck, but here are a few of the does in the turnip patch.

The rut is a bit off yet but it won’t be long.
