    The longest shot was about 125 yards. All the others were 60-100.

    I’ve done better down there in the swamps rather than in the fields and I can only see about 100 yards.

    I did land clearing about 20-30 years ago. After(And during) the shotgun season, we would find a lot deer under heavy thickets. The scavengers could not get to them. I think most of the birds seen feeding on dead deer are along the roads and the deer were hit by cars. I would not worry about. I live along the Lehigh river and see both eagles and vultures, sometimes floating together. The river has a lot more dangers than a little lead.
