Weirdest thing you've had happen to you in the woods?

I had a owl[seen it coming] fly right at me, at about 20 yrds I wasn't to worried . At 10 yrds I was squirming
and all I was thinking is he seen movement from my leafy head net that I had on. I actually started standing up, at the last second
it swerved off, I swear I could feel the wind from it's wing when it went by.

Well there has been a few weird things happen in my 40 yrs in the woods...... been shot at numerous times,both on purpose and by accident, never hit though.......Was attacked by a poacher, my son almost shot him with an arrow, but as he released I hit the bow and it missed him by inches...sissy ran off............but the best weird thing, won't go into much detail but I was sitting in my stand on the edge of a hidden resevoir pond on a beautiful fall day when I saw someone coming through the tall grass carrying a blanket, when she got to the pond, she spread the blanket out and dis-robed, it was a uncomfortable situation for sure but as I gathered my things, I hear.."Hey, You don't have to leave".... it was my lucky day!

Two years ago I was hunting a field edge, may 10 yards back from the standing corn. I could hear racket out in the corn all afternoon, and around 4:00 it was getting closer. I could see out into the field and I could see the stalks breaking and being moved around. I of course assumed it was the Jordan buck coming my way since there was so much corn being moved. I get all ready, release clipped on, tension on the string, and out walks a fricken pig...as in an oinker, a real pig, Hampshire to be exact. I cuoldn't believe it. I started laughing of course, but also was like "what the hell is going on here!"

In Canada, while bow hunting bears, I had a Whiskey jack fly right through my bow between the strings and the riser.
Tons of other cool or wierd things from 30 years of hunting
