    Given the numbers we saw I don't think it's kicking off yet and is most likely still a ways off. Some animals were stripping velvet or had done already. We saw or heard no roaring and apart from a few Fallow family groups with smaller bucks and spikers in tow the bigger headed animals were all in boy groups of up to 5 or 6 animals, and a few solitary animals (1 Huge Sika Stag and a Couple of Bucks) just wandering around like they didn't have a care in the world.

    Given last week consistently got up to about 28 degrees in temp following Dovi- apart from a few showers it's still far too hot and the overnights mild for things to kick off early.

    I think we're still a ways off...

    CD.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and streams, its where life is clear, where the world makes most sense!
