With the lack of rain our creek has dried up and there is no water within a mile or so of your place. Made for some tough hunting as the deer were few and far between only moving through our place at night, but I was getting very few pictures. On Friday I bit the bullet and put out water troughs at two feeders with hope it would help. Since all our water comes from captured rain I really didn't want to use any for this purpose even though our tanks are pretty full, not sure when we will get rain to refill them. The rain on Sunday missed our place so it is still as dry as it was. Either way the water troughs helped as I had more pictures Saturday night/Sunday morning than the whole rest of the week. If I had not decided to sleep in on Sunday morning and cook my wife breakfast I'd like gotten a shot at a ugly 3 pointer that needs to be taken out. Oh well that is Murphy's law in play again. Here is a picture of that 3 pointer and one of a bigger buck I want to get a better look at. Also I have Little "D" watching over one of the feeders while I'm gone and I included a couple pictures of him, let me know what you think of this idea.
