Antler shedding has begun...

Pictured here is the first buck I've seen that has already dropped his antlers. If you look closely, you will see the bases where the antlers were attached on the top of his head. It seems to me that this one is early this year since they usually tend to begin the shedding about the twentieth of March. Who knows why this one is early? I have also noticed that the bucks have begun to get back into groops. If you see one, you will likely see four, five, or more.
