Thought you might enjoy the changes as seen from one of my stands this Season:

Mid October


Late November


Early January


The stand while scenic -was not productive. I was too close to the head of the pond - and too often the wind blew from the dam - towards me. The deer when skirlting the pond through the head thicket - could wind anyone in this stand.

Moving the stand - 200 yds north for next season.

Gotta live the pictures though.

Nice pictures! Who cares if you never seea deer sitting inthere with that view. Reminds me of my hometown area, which probably isn't too far a way from there. I miss that area. Thanks for the pics.

i love seeing pics like that that show how much different the views are from your stand as the seasons change. great pics

It had to be enjoyable just sitting in that stand rgardless of where the deer ran. Awesome view!

Very very nice pics, here's two from my stand, early season and late.





Of course you can view many shots from my stand throughout the season on my HNI hunting journals at this link. http://www.huntingnet.com/fieldjournal/fieldjournal.aspx?id=58

Here is one nice pic of an area I still hunt regularly during the late season.(sorry no matching pic).

Are the conifers in you picture Red Spruce or Norway Spruce maybe?

Its hard to tell at the distance - do you know if the were planted - or are naturally re-seeded?

Nice pics both you and Rob.

Here's my favorite so far this winter:

Nice pictures Sean and guys.... Sean put one up here of your camp, they are really neat aas well.

This area is all old farm fields. This specifc picture features a low lying area, so I am not sure if it was planted with a crop. My guess is that it was hay for awhile. I am certain it was brush hogged in the past decade.

I believe the trees are all natural, they certainly were not planted intentionally in this location.

Perhaps their parents were introduced years ago though
