    Fallow "wallow"

    This wasn't here a week ago, seems they've found a patch of reasonably dry ground and worked it over into a big bare patch. Haven't seen before. What are they up to?

    I’ve had game camera photos of youngsters still playing on scrapes in June.

    Nope but interesting that rootball in the middle is the remains of a Ragwort plant. Be good if we could train them to go round busting up Ragwort

    I've found a few of these in the blue mtns too. Normally have a stump of some kind in it too, seem to be well used all year round. I assumed was a bit of a scratch, dust bath general tom foolery area.

    It’s just the boys regrouping and sorting out the pecking order again. Quite common in mid winter.

    Could be a couple of bucks scraping. Last week I had two 10 point red stags wake me and the dog up first light antlers clashing for at leat an hour. They made a hell of a mess on the ground 70m from camp. By the time I got me shit together they had slowed up and one bolted off see us come with the rising sun coming from behind us, the other stag just stood there looking at us and I could of shot him 10 times over before he ran off.

    It's a rutting stand, commonly seen in the deer parks of Englandshire.

    Is it common three months after the rut though?

    Interesting. Found a handful of the same type of active scapes in a new hunting block I’m finding my around in at the moment. Does it indicate higher numbers and more competition? No shortage of sign that’s for sure.

    Unless things are somehow different in the Southern Hemisphere (apart from being upside down), they will be visited annually, and 'the rut' won't have a specific start or end date, there can be false ruts as well (before and after main event).
