Mid-Summer Bucks


As mid-summer approaches the ripening grass heads are now turning brown in the areas not yet mowed. Meanwhile the whitetail bucks antlers continue to develop at a rapid pace.

By now the bucks have developed their main-beams. For the remainder of their development over the next six to seven weeks the visible growth will occur in the points.

Great shot. I imagine they are enjoying that tall grass.

They look like they will be two nice bucks. You and Willard are getting some great photos from the meadows again this year.

Nice pics of the deer! I have one on my blog. We were in Gatlinburg vacationing in May and saw many deer, bear, and other critters in the Smokey Mountain National Park.
