Default Delaware rut has begun

Just watched 2 eights chase a doe through the field out back! What a sight seeing them in real life after only catching them on trail cameras this summer. YAY

Approximately 3% of the does in the nation come into estrous for the first time during this week, Alsheimer has written about it some, as has Tom Indrebo (Bluff Country Outfitters). It's possible the doe you saw had come into estrous early. No doubt it's exciting to see them in the flesh though!
