Summer Retreat   |   Fall Retreat   |   Icy Courtship   |   Thru the Pass   |   Silent Hunter/Great Horned Owl   |   Pitchin' for a Double Ringer






In the quiet lazy  summer afternoon a buck takes his leisure among the rich grass. His antlers, covered in velvet, are ultra-sensitive at this stage. They will grow rapidly, while being readied for the rutting season ahead. In the animal kingdom, antlers are the fastest growing bone structures known.

In the months ahead, after the first abrupt drop in temperature, this buck will begin to remove his velvet by rubbing his antlers against saplings. He will prepare for the rutting season by strengthening his neck muscles as he pushes against the saplings to remove the velvet. Summer Retreat
