Default RE: What are deer doing now?

ORIGINAL: MinnFinn

In MN they are herded up in the heavy cover to get out of the cold and wild. They'll come out mainly early in the morning or after dark to feed, drink and then head back to the thick stuff. Here it Black Spruce swamps in the North and cattails and thick wood in the farm country.
Wow, I'm amazed there still is Deer hunting going on this time of year. Ours ended mid-Nov. for firearm, except muzzleloader was into early Dec. I think. Interesting.
Your right about the deer we have in MN.A buddy of mine that lives Big Lake way, has seenover 100 deereach in a couple of farm fields early morning before light and when on the way to work.
ML season actually starts the Saturday after Thanksgiving and goes for two weeks into mid-dec.
I do wish that we could hunt longer than 12/31 and at least a few weeks into January.
