Fly By
by Mark Keathley
I
love nature. It is full of surprises. I
can recall many times hunting when
"what" I was after showed up at the
least expected time. One morning I was
hunting in a deer stand near Bastrop
Texas and had been extremely patient
(for a 15 year old) sitting for two
hours in this wooden box with windows
when I just couldn't take it anymore. I
hadn't seen anything all morning but a
fox and some black birds and thought if
I got out and walked, I could see more
and cover more ground. So I quietly got
out and walked to the south down a fence
row that I had been looking down from
the stand. After walking super quietly
for about 200 yards, I turned around
just in time to see a trophy buck
standing 20 feet from my stand looking
at me. He hopped the fence and
disappeared into the woods never to be
seen again. A moment I'll never forget.
In "Fly By" this yellow lab is dreaming
of the day he will get to come back to a
spot like this with his companion /
owner and enjoy the hunt. I wanted to
create this scene for your eyes and your
own desire to be "in it" with your dog.
Maybe he is there alone, but you could
enter the drama -- just pretend you set
out some decoys and then turned around
to see what might be the closest ducks
all day. What ever just happened, this
scene is just waiting for you, so grab
your thermos of coffee and a dog treat
and come sit a spell and watch the
magic.
