The world awkening from my tree stand

[Jeff Hoover]

I like to be up, in my tree stand, 40 minutes before sunrise, so things can quiet down a bit. I always look forward to the crack of dawn.

Besides the beautifull sunrise, all I saw were a flock of turkey, 3 toms, and 4 hens. 2 of the toms had beards 8-9 inches long. No deer sightings, but still a good day !

Hopefully, tomorrow will bring more hunters to get the deer moving. I know where I'll be .

Great pics thank you.

Watching the world wake up is one of my favorite parts of hunting!

Lots of good memories of the sun coming up while in a deer stand, bass fishing too. Seems I sleep in too late nowadays...

Great pics BTW!

The best part of hunting is being out there in the absolute silence.
Even if you dont come across anything.

Most beautiful & peaceful time to be out in the woods ... only wish I still had the gumption to get my ol' butt out there that early more often!
Seems like the older I get, the more I appreciate my warm bed on my days off from work.

Looks peace full. I have watched many sunrises and enjoy them. Steve

You know i hear that only 1 out of 10 people see a sunrise in a year. Boy they sure are missing out. What do you think?

I don't know which is better? sunrise in the forest or at 35,00 feet....oh well, one's playin' and one's workin....

I dunno about other people but I see lots. I don't know how you can have a fulltime job and not see sunrises in the northern parts of the country where the dawn and dusk change times so much.

I can't find one from my morning commute. So here's a couple from fishing a while ago. I'm not trying to threadjack but I figure everyone must like looking at sunrise pictures even if the camera was on a weird setting that made everything extra green. :wink:

Wow... I really often wished I lived in a rural place. I don't remember what silence is like anymore.
