Had two doe at a pond tonight 62 yards away. Usually deer that hit the pond come right on by my tree but tonight it was just not to be.

Got an interesting show for my time tonight. Had what I first thought was two chipmunks chasing around my tree but when they tangled, I heard a tiny snarling sound unlike any chipmunk or squirrel. I grabbed the binos and it was a weasel tangling with a really big chippy. Even stranger was that the weasel ran off and the chipmunk was definitely torn up bad. I checked him with the binos again and his hindquarters were torn and bleeding and he didnt seem to have any use of his left hind leg. He was still alive but he literally dragged his back half as he crawled away.

Of course when I got to my truck, dad had to tell me that three deer were grazing in his yard 20 feet from my truck an hour before dark.
