Nov. 20 Fall Vibes

I didn't think that bucks lived or traveled together but in certain situations they do... most likely not during rutting season.

I thought I'd share this image anyway.

I saw three bucks together on a walk the other day. At first I thought they were going to spar but they didn’t. Someone told me that some yearling and less dominant bucks will form bachelor packs. Another time years ago I saw three bucks together but when their antlers were still in velvet, not during peak rut. The bucks in the photo look pretty good size though.

Edited to add: Beautiful photo. Thank you for these stunning autumn visuals each day!
