Harper and Izzy produced this rooster this afternoon. They produced a few hens, but the only other roosters we saw flew out of the adjacent corn field when a small buck exploded out of it with stalks hanging around his neck and antlers. He came within 5 yards of us on a full dead sprint. I thought we might get run over. Fortunately he heard my loud, “hey” and saw my arms waive. I'm sure I sounded like a full grown man and not an elementary boy. (who knows…there were no witnesses besides the dogs and they have my back.)
