The bleached antler here, shed years ago by a black-tailed buck, was already white when I chanced upon it, and has remained so on a shelf in the barn. Though deer traffic is heavy through our woods, this is the only specimen I’ve found, and thus a rarity. Handling it again today, I was reminded of the diversity of natural structures that we take for granted, or that go unnoticed, in our short time among them.

Great click indeed! Nice choice for the topic!
Great antler. My dogs occasionally have antlers to eat and I know its structure is as tough as. Lover the Miller quote. So true.
