Re: Views from the Perch 2017!
Darn skeeters are so bad here. Even if I think about going they curb my desire pretty quickly!
The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.
Re: Views from the Perch 2017!
Amen to the skeeters!! Be sure to wear your safety harness and keep it tightly fastened to the tree. That's so the skeeters can't fly off with you!!

Looks good, James. Is that on the fringe of a bean field?

I was sitting on a ridge often used as a bedding area for Deer coming up from the fields. It's also among some White Oaks I hoped they would be feeding on. Where the brown waypoint marker is.

Re: Views from the Perch 2017!
Had three large bodied Deer pass by about 40 yards in front of me just before this picture. I messed up this morning, I passed by my stand without seeing it. The worst part is that I walked through where they passed then had to turn back to find my stand. They knew I went through there and wanted nothing to do with it! Very likely were coming up my hollow to get to the bedding area beyond and behind me! But my walking right by the stand may have cost me, will never really know. I'm sure nobody else has had any trouble finding their stand before good daylight.
