Superbly outstanding scenery and photos Tom!! You are a photographer Sir!

thank you Tony, I spend a lot of time outdoors and almost always have my phone and/or a camera with me. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel, great photo opportunities abound here on Oak Island!

Looks like it's almost ready to thresh.

yes sir, it’s the reason why it’s so grainy, I was a thinking man’s distance away when I spotted it and never approached; snapped a pic and left.

Great pictures, Ike!
That one "wheat thief" looks like he'll be a good one this coming fall.

Thanks, John, Floyd, and Philip.

Yeah, TF, I've been seeing a few velvet antlers around. There was a slight depression in that field where this one was standing, so only his head was visible. It was a decent size, though it may not have been apparent. Just curious, with your rut being much later in L.A. than here in the Midwest, when do they shed and get new growth?

Great pics Ike
That Buck in velvet with his head just above the wheat is an awesome shot! We don’t have wheat fields here so it’s something we would not see normally.
Thanks for posting them.

Of course not, you can't make cheese from wheat!

We make a good cheese curd though.
