So, it was pretty foggy when we turned up. The range finder and camera only just able to pick Chris out at 20 metres. Our theory was to drop some altitude and head into the pines to get some visibility and shelter from the weather. In the pines we split up. My walk was pretty uneventful and I was strolling over to where I expected Chris to be when some movement caught my eye. I slowed down and watched what turned out to be him stalking in on something unseen by me.
A where's Wally of sorts. Can you see him?

After watching for a while and he not taking a shot I crept forward on hands and knees to see what was going on. From my angle I could see 2 young goats bedded down against a tree and I had a shot open. I got his attention and the nod to take the shot which ended up a bit far back in the ribcage exiting though the guts.
After giving it a bit of time we found it still alive. A bit of a stalk ending with both of us putting arrows into it to finish it off.
After a bit of backyard butchery I hung the meat in a tree and we went looking for more.
Chris stalking in on a goat that mysteriously vanished.
I headed home after this and Chris stayed on...
