The deer hunter shoots its prey and immediately opens the carcass with a cleaver. Jays fly down first to consume the remains of the deer -- first, jay comes. New photographs and drawings capture these traces of the hunt: the cleared clearing, the discarded remains, the scavenger birds that arrive before anything else does, and the quiet forest that closes back over the scene once they are gone.
