Tigger, his twin, and antler report

I'm so excited. We haven't seen hide nor hair of Tigger and his brother in a couple of days. Twin has lost his antlers, and I've been walking miles looking to see if I can find any antlers. So far, nada.

Most of our bucks still have their antlers, although many have damaged one. I would suspect that our younger bucks are about two or three years old. Tigger is 6, and king of the forest.  We are in a warmer weather patten than Ottawa. My friend, Justin, an writer of things outdoors, managed to find a matched pair of antlers!

First shed antlers of the season - and they're a match! #shed #antlers #shedhunting #deer #buck #ottawa @OODMag pic.twitter.com/hvFTlyx2IR

I was fearing that Tigger had already lost his antlers. Happily, I spotted him at the bird feeder on the trailcam last night. Trailcam #2, the better one, has finished its batteries and we need to buy some more. Dang. At this point, I'm not so much worried about great images, but evidence. I have it!
