I had not seen this Minnesota whitetail buck for about a year. He returned to the meadow this week with bigger antlers and body. The rut is in full swing here now.

Another fine buck and great pose Jerry -- the Corel treatment looks good too.

Are bucks actually breeding does already, or is most of the rutting behavior you're seeing the "chase phase" of the rut?

BTW, I really like what you're doing with the painterly editing . . . looks great!

Yes they started mating this weekend. Up until then it was the chase and posture phase.
