Noticed a lot of seng here is yellow,fallen and no berries. Gonna be a short season . not to mention the ground is rock hard. Nature's to beautiful to be ignored

Found a few more around it about like that nice one you have forestman. Funny thing was, he's hunted that woods for 3-4 years and only found a few 4 prongs each time. Said he's walked by that spot each time and never seen that patch before.
