Early January the bucks still have antlers, itchy, old, fragile (or even bloody stumps), and graze with bucks. Late January and into February the antlers are gone and the bucks and does and fawns graze together. Late February the rich greens trigger the next set of antlers to start bulging and the sexes separate again.
Tuesday someone had cracked open a coconut along the trail leaving the meat lying exposed. Wednesday about a third of the meat had been neatly nibbled away. Today the shell is stripped clean.
