Arizona Big Game and Dusty

My brother David and I spent about 3 days in the Galleros Mtns last November for our deer hunt, but don't worry, the only shooting we did was video. Just thought I would share, it was alot of fun to find them and watch.

MULE DEER
We ran into this group the night before and then saw them again when we went back out the next morning. About 5 doe and a yearling.



COUE'S WHITE TAIL DEER
We took a nap under a tree and when we woke up we found this doe and her yearling across the ravine.



ELK
Here's a huge bull elk my brother found last weekend while helping a freind scout for an upcoming hunt.



Dusty
And.... just for fun, here is my brother and I doing some training for Dusty.

Orb it!

I went out in the back yard yesterday and found a web that spanned about 10 feet out from the playhouse and decided that I may need to get the BlackFlag out. I found this Orb Spider under the kids slide. I guess they have the same kind of poison as a black widow, but a lot less potent. So it would not be too bad to get stung and they are not very aggressive.

Night Hike II

Last night after the rain, we went out to see all the wildlife. It was a little cool after the rain, so there were not a lot of snakes, but there were quite a few toads.
We found this little sidewinder pretty early on in the evening.
This guy looked like a little snake crossing the road when we drove by it on the road.

I forgot to eat before I left, fortunately the desert was able to provide some good eatin'!
