Nothing quite like hearing them going to town and figuring how the fk to get down to them and then get them back up hill.

they were doing the same the other day in the ruahines,8 am went good for a few minutes then went quiet and then about 2pm again for a couple of minutes.i believe they do this establish their dominance again when their hinds get up and go for a short graze during the day.I have noticed this is usually early of peak roar time when the hinds are just starting to cycle as opposed to full noise roaring when the bulk of the hinds are on.
