Great pixs
I sometimes hear folks discussing rubs and scrapes and often her fellas referring to a rub as a scrape.
a rub is a tree that is used like a sign post to tell other deer in the area that I and or we are here and it is marked with scent from glands on the head and of course rubbed with antlers until its often barkless on one side .
a scrape is a bird of a different color and is typically a "deer forum" in that lots of deer not just a few bucks will visit it . it is marked with scent from the other end and urine as well and is a community area that all the deer might visit at some point . it occurs under trees in most cases along the drip line of the tree where its branches hang low enough to reach .
anyway I thought I might show yawl a few photos of a young buck who stopped in to say hello the other deer . about 7 does went by this scrape before him that morning .
and then a couple of here they come piggy photos for grins
hope you have a great day

Good info and pictures!
I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me.
Deer around here can't relax long enough to take time to say hello or come out in the open until after dark! Good pictures! Thanks
