It's That Time Again! - a photo on Flickriver

            Time for rut season!  I love this season when all the animals are at there most beautiful.  Antlers polished, fur gleaming, winter bulk on, what a sight!  Not a good photo but I love the 'chase' and spirit of the season it conveys.  As I look at the photo I can hear the bull bugling in my mind ... one of my all time favorite sounds of nature.

Thanks for sharing the experience,
Bev
