Momma and calf over a mineral pit caught on a different trail cam. Little guy doesn’t want to leave the area, couple times momma wanders off he just doesn’t follow so she comes back.

This is about a mile and half directly behind the house. I have to say, being able to tramp the woods with these monarchs walking around is plain awesome.

I spend as much time outside as work, the law, and the wife will allow, there’s been a couple years where I think the skeeters stopped biting me because I was a walking welt. No fresh surface left from which to draw blood.

Deet just never was compatible with me. I hate the stuff.

So this year I tried the Repel stuff based on a recommendation from a friend in South America. Smell isn’t unpleasant and while I still get them hanging out about a foot and a half from me they don’t stay long and they don’t light to bite.

My kids spend a lot of time outside with me, my youngest daughter refused to use Deet, but she doesn’t mind the Lemon-Eucalyptus so that’s a relief.

It was nearly $8 a bottle at Amazon but Wally world had it for $4.88 so I stocked up on it.

The active ingredient is p-Menthane-3,8-diol, here’s a link to a fact sheet on the stuff.

p-Menthane-3,8-diol

Hope it works for you as well.

Excellent pics — thanks for posting! That calf is looking very good for condition.

Apparently the deerflies and horseflies have yet to make much of an appearance in your vicinity this season. The former have been active here for a couple of weeks. Luckily we don’t see much of the latter at all here in the Granite Headed State.

I would like to try that repellant but we have a severe tick problem here in Ok. I spray my clothes with pyrethrem. (sp) a couple of days before going into the woods. Keeps the ticks off.
