There is something truly magickal and blessed about being able to watch the herd grow up. I’ve shared pictures of Nubs before…Let me tell you about this picture though. My Nubs is growing up.
This young buck is a part of the herd that lives near us on the Olympic Peninsula. If you are familiar with Washington, I live in Port Angeles (rural) between PA and Sequim. Last year was his second year with us - I remember when he had his spots the year before. Anyway, his buttons grew and his antlers have been getting longer. Yesterday I saw him and yep adorable as ever. Today…something new. His “nubby antlers” lost their velvet for the first time.
