Finally got out tonight for a look, heard a couple stags just getting in to it. Got to dark. Have another look in the morning

Some here Tahr but finally found where some stags are living but yep hinds are in there family groups with the old spiker acting like any teen age boy

Hinds Wallow most of the year, like said above ticks,lice etc watching some the other day covered in mud head to toe. Lot of the yearlings/fawns love playing in the mud

No noise here as yet, hind wallows are in use and been getting used most of summer no real stag wallows been opened up yet.
And stags don't seem to be with hinds yet.
