Buck Snorting

October 23, 2026

I saw a white tailed buck, with a group of does, snorting and spraying what I assume was saliva.  Has any body ever seen this behavior?  It was very hard to photograph because he was deep into a thicket and was moving his head up and down and back and forth a fair amount.  Despite the out of focus subject, the action was very unusual and I wanted to share the photos of it.  I have never seen this before.  I hope he isn’t sick.
