RE: While they are sleeping....
This is the first year I have seen mulies using the mansion. Every year it has been whitetails so far. It's seems odd to me as there are several very large cottonwood trees in the general area of this shed. So they have plenty of shade to bed down in. Why they choose to sleep in the shed is beyond me. The deer just seem to love bedding in there. They always show up about mid May with buttons on their heads and stay thru the summer. Then they leave out about the first week of September with full racks. We often see them feeding in the yeard and pasture near the house. It is pretty neat to get to watch them grow. They all will have names at some point.

RE: While they are sleeping....
That is incredible, to me. I would have never thought they'd do that. Thanks for posting those.
There's an old barn right in my honey hole that I ALWAYS wonder why they don't bed in. It has a dirt floor basement....and the entire south side of the building is delapidated and gone. They could bed in there and be out of all the elements (except the cold....which isn't that bad, here). I've yet to find a bed in there, though.
REALLY "neat" photos, Elk......and thanks, again, for sharing.

RE: While they are sleeping....
I checked the camera tonight and had 146 pictures of these guys just from today alone. I wish I could post them all because there is really some amazing stuff! I nicknamed this buck "Crabby" for his touching forks. Kind of a cool non typical on the one side.
I am going to get an additional trail camera. These things are almost as addicting as hunting itself!!
