WAYNE COUNTY, Mo. -- Hunting stories are vital to the tradition of hunting. No hunt is complete until the hunter shares the play-by-play of what happened in the wild. For new turkey hunter Holly Spain, a student at Three Rivers College, it’s a story of how she discovered the excitement of being in the woods during the spring turkey season.

“We left the house just after five that morning and it was exciting to be out there,” Holly described the morning of her hunt.

Kansas City, Mo. – Seeing a white color phase of a white-tail deer is rare. But Michael Utt of Sugar Creek now has photographs of two different white deer. Utt is watching them along with other deer in a small herd on private land near Lake of the Ozarks.

“They’re neat. You can see them coming through the woods from a long ways off,” he said.
