December Winner: Markulous and Year Winner: Wild Canon

Congratulations to Markulous on winning the final competition of 2009 and Wild Canon on winning the overall competition for the year!

The top 3 members this year were:

1st - Wild Canon (80 votes)
2nd - Markulous (40 votes)
3rd - Keith (33 votes)

Congratuations to all three of you and also a big thanks to everyone who entered this year. If you'd like to know your score then please contact Jamie.

As you know, this was Jamie's last month running the competition so a huge thank you to him from everyone at the forum. He's run the competition brilliantly and I'm sure you'll agree it's been a big success.

There will be no January competition this year but hopefully we should have something sorted for February.

Thanks and happy new year!

RE: Rutting

Not seen but certainly heard! Red deer bellowing in the woods and scaring the horses!

There is pleasure in the pathless woods,
There is rapture in the lonely shore,
There is society where none intrudes........
I love not Man the less, but Nature more.

RE: Rutting

I'm in the North of Lancashire. Silverdale, just north of Lancaster. We have red, roe and fallow in the woods here but the reds are the noisiest by far!
