Wow! I’ve shot a number of woodies but I’ve seldom see more than one or two at a time. Nice pic. Like the turtles in the background too.
Scott,
Nope look again....
Matt,
Looks like I'll come back up for the shoulder season (elk)….Least amount of white-tail I've seen since coming up....Lots of muleys….And these spikes....

11 I did not see the one by the trunk to the far right
Rams on the road. That's pretty badass. Montana must be the Sportsman's Paradise

So Steve do you think you're seeing less deer because of the CWD? I know some guys that live in Montana that have seen numerous deer doing circles and drowning themselves in the rivers. Just something else we have to worry about.
Side note. I see Zero Montana ducks. The duck of Montana is the mighty spoonbill. I don't see any

9, I think the one on the far right is a spoony disguised as a mallard.
Nope, Matt....Woodies & gaddys….
No Canada this year...In fact, I've never seen a wood duck in Canada...Lots of these though.

I saw a lot of WT in Missoula when I was out there. Majority of them were in residential areas and private farm fields. Only a few in the actual forest though. Reminded me of Julian. Lol View attachment 46078
Scott,
Don't know about CWD...Nobody really mentions it around here...I just know last year (& years past), white-tail along the Missouri were like rats...This year BMA (block management access) properties and places that were overrun with good bucks, I've barely seen a doe.
Muley's?....No problem

Right on. Maybe they're seeing something on the opposite side of the state. The guy I know lives out in Terry. That's out there by Miles City.

Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, as well as Colorado and now Utah (and soon New Mexico and Arizona) are becoming polluted with libs wanting privacy because of the money they have made and the price of land out here. Where in the past the old school land owners who were multi generational land owners who knew how to manage what they had (and the land had not much value.) Now you have people with lot's of money and no knowledge moving in buying up the land and are excluding the game management state's biologist's from their job's and property management and advice thus becoming uninformed. It's even more important now that we support a federally enforced policy. These individual states are succombing to the rich and uninformed land owners that think they know better than the biologist's from the federal goverment that have studied the habitat for years. As Forest Gump said- stupid is as stupid does...
