Second rut starting?
I'm workin in Whitby between thickson rd and brock rd just off the south side of the 401
I watched two bucks today chase a fawn or small doe for an hour around the jobsite.
The doe would get spooked from the machinery and run. The bucks wouldn't take there eyes off her and only moved when she did. I finally seen the bigger buck try to mount her but she kept moving forward. 8 pointer and 6 pointer
I couldn't believe it...needless to say I did a whole lot of nothing for that hour just watching them..this is 300 yards from the 401

This year has been kinda weird with the weather. Did they ever really go into a full on rut in late Oct/Nov? Not a lot of people noticed much daytime activity from what I've been hearing.

Had a nice 10 pt cross the road in front of me today mid afternoon just south of Georgetown.

I spent the PM today walking bush lots with my bow. I can't believe the number of Deer I saw. The bucks are acting all wonky and the does are running them ragged. I didn't get any shots away,but,I know where I'm setting up this weekend. The change in weather has really got them cranked up.

2 road kills and a quick spotting of one since last friday during my Haliburton/ Oshawa commute. They seem to be on the move with the frosty weather.

I'm wondering if we're still in the first rut... saw a big buck bolting across the road in broad daylight the other day... must be sniffing around for does still...

The mature 8 point I shot last week came by me @ 4:45pm. He was walking really slow with his head down sniffing the ground probably looking for a doe. He didn't have a care in the world untill my .300gr XTP was sent on it's way...
