RE: beaver bog
I'd be looking for a fnnel around the bog. If it's open deer won't want to cross it durring the day. If you can find a spot where there is a narrow crossing or around the ends is often a good spot to find concentrated deer movement.
I've also been hearing about bears in the southern part of the state. I talked to a guy(at walmart getting his liceness) who hunts somersworth and he also said the land owners where he has permission to hunt have seen bears lately.
