Sunrise found me perched in a tree in sika country. A bugle while walking in brought a smile but never heard another. I zeroed in on some movement and saw two young sikas (snadwich size) and a sika doe (oven roaster) move past me at about 40 yards. They messed around and then they went out of sight. Heard a commotion and then saw the two young ones chasing each other round and round at full tilt mode. They did that for a good five minutes then left. I got down at 9 am and , while sneaking back to the truck, saw a spike whitetail and a doe feeding on acorns. Not a bad morning at all but no sika for the freezer.
Headed to the new stand I put up the other day and hauled in 50 lbs of corn. It should be ready to hunt on Friday or Saturday. Didn't see many hunters on the way home through sika country.
Stopped by to see how Jason (oakcreek) and his wife did. No bloody hands but a fun morning.
Can't hunt this evening and won't get to go again until tomorrow evening. Until then.......
I went out both a.m. and p.m. in Dorchester and saw 5 coming out around noon and then jumped one going in... Saw another little one on stand in the p.m. Heard 4 bugles... and saw 13 turkeys... GREAT DAY!
