7.62 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 I have found nests if you want to call them that ( I call them bedding areas ) many many times ( probably 100's of them over my 45 years of deer hunting ) One common theme when I find these is all the vegetation is matted down . Even from all the pics you posted ,Yes I see some small branches under the trees but if you really look close none are matted down as if something has been bedding there that weighs in the excess of 4 or 500 pounds . Just something to think about here but any day is a good day out in the forest hiking or on a lake fishing whether we find evidence or not.

An eastern hemlock branch is not the type of thing that can be compressed, like grass and other vegetative matter, like ferns or reeds, or moss. The twigs are basically wood, and the needles don't really crush down either. Thanks for your comment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, it is an unladen swallow. And the the answer is 20 to 24 miles an hour. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Posted April 16, 2022 Share Posted April 16, 2022 I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that that air speed velocity is for the European variety of Unladen swallow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
