Antlers represent an enormous food and energy expense.
It would be one thing if they were grown just once, like a leg bone, but instead they are grown and shed and grown again.
Every year it's just more expense, and always-bigger antlers.
Amazing.
These two bucks were sparring in downtown Frederick, Maryland, a short walk from one of my coffee spots.
Locally, early bow season for deer starts today.
