The Deer

 

I have not seen too many deer at Connetquot River State Park the past couple of months. Why that is I do not know.  However, this weekend I started seeing them again and noticing that the bucks are growing antlers. I read that they start sprouting again on the bucks in the spring, but since I saw so few deer the past couple of months, I can't say when it began. However, this buck with his new velvet covered antlers, I thought was impressive and very worthy of a picture.
