Time for another photo thread ! Odd or strange outdoor photos.

Just that boring time of year for me so I thought it's time for another photo thread. We had a good input on a few older threads on fishing and fishing lures. Lots of great photos were seen.  Just thought about some odd or different outdoor photos I've taken or seen over the years so I'll post a few. Feel free to comment or post some of your own and share. Mine are mostly local fishing but any outdoor oddities will fit in. Just killing time with these slow Winter days !  Enjoy ....................

One in a million I call this one !  Got a fish in the back round jumping in the Niagara River ! Never ever happen again !


 
Two deer in Elk Creek cooled off and decided to visit my buddy fishing !

This Steelhead was caught and released as you see and was caught again by me two weeks later about a mile upstream! We figured a prop hit .

I was with my friend here when he shot a Pa. buck that had 100% fur covering the rack. It was a buck that never rubbed off it's velvet! The rack was covered with blonde 1/2" hairs.

It was a boy. Penn State checked it out and said some deer get injured and will cause that to happen. You could have taken a comb and brushed the hair ! He had the rack freeze dried by a taxidermist and it still looks pretty cool.

Thanks' Nick that is one of my lifetime favorite photos ! I was using my 35 mm Cannon camera taking that photo of my son holding that Laker and had know idea that that fish was in the photo. Got the film developed a week or so later and at first glance I thought it was a log floating by. Took a double take and thought WOW ! What are the odds of getting a fish jumping partially out of the water that split second !  One in a million I'd say !

Goldfish. For scale, I can palm a basketball.

Good stuff. Catfish on a jitterbug.......never would have thought!!
 
I've been going through all my pics and can't really find anything I'd call odd, strange, etc. Here's two things that come sorta close I guess
 
Caught this little brook trout this past summer. Had some wounds probably from a bird or something.....other than that nothing too unusual. About a month or so later, I caught it again!!!! Proves that C&R works and the wounds seemed to have healed up nicely. I've caught many other fish multiple times as well but this one stuck out the most.
 


 
Around that same time frame I fished another stream in the area. Caught a decent amount of fish...mix between hatchery browns and bows and wild browns. I eventually came to a spot where a tiny little jump across trib comes in through all that vegetation. Didn't even notice it until I was on my way back to the vehicle it was so well hidden.


 
In one of the first pools, I catch this guy!! A good sized wild brown trout for such a tiny stream. Nice surprise! Ended up catching a little dink as well.
 

 
So when I got home I looked at the map and this creek doesn't even show up. No little blue line or anything. The creek doesn't have a name and isn't on the PFBC's natural reproduction list for trout. Always cool when you stumble upon little places like that!

Nice pics guys ! 
Here's an odd one taken on Elk Creek by a friend of mine about five years ago . A pure white Heron !

A rare wild Black (color phase ) Fox taken by a friend locally!

Nice pic of the black fox.  Buddy and I were unloading the truck early one morning ice fishing at Manning launch last year when he says check this out.  I walk around the truck and there is one standing 10ft from him.  Hung around for a minute or 2, then off into the dark.  Thought maybe he winded our bait bucket and was coming in for a closer look.  Beautiful animal.  Wish I would have had a camera.

Fishing in Erie I had this deer drop from the cliff. At first glance and by the sound of it hitting the ankle deep water, I thought it was a giant boulder. When we got up to it we realized it was a buck!
 
A couple weeks later while archery hunting I heard a noise in the tree above me. I stepped out from the tree and the following fell out of the sky!  I was a good 400 yards from the lake! I looked up and saw a bald eagle fly off!

Cool pics. Can somebody tell me how to upload a photo. (I have it saved on my desktop)

That's some crazy stuff PITFLY!!

Two Bass caught in a muskrat hole in early December a few years ago!

Thank you. I'll try it.

Deer swimming across Raccoon Lake.
(A few months later I watched a squirrel swim across but didn't have my camera.)
