One of the things i like best about spot and stalk hunting is the fact that I am an active participant in the landscape and I get to see "nature in action" It's kind of like watching one of those TV nature shows Disney used to make, or Mutual of Omaha. Thinking back, i've seen a number of things that most people wouldn't get to experience and I remember them fondly.
One year before the rifle season opened in Western Wyoming, I was be-bopping around the hills near the trailhead with my bow hoping thata mule deer buck would stumble into range. While resting on a ridge, I hear something coming, and it is a female black bear with cubs about 40 yards below me. I had the wind in my face, a slight breeze, and it brought the sounds of the cubs and mother to me quite clearly. I really enjoyed just sitting there soaking in that moment on that ridge in Wyoming.
What moments with wildlife that you weren't necessarily hunting have you experienced that you remember fondly?
