eyes?
I'm not an ol' timer but in my experience the boars are at the top of the trees and sows below them. this only seems to be when they are in the same trees. but this is the first year i've been watching for this. and it wasn't always true but for me more times than not it was. Anthony

Most all I tree in the summer have either red or amber eyes!!! Must be the lenses I use lol... I have seen boars treed that had that wild look in their eyes during the rut. Dont really think their eyes were any different color.You could just tell something was different.

I have found it to be the exact opposite during the rut. The female will be in the top trying to get away from the rutting Boar that is below her.

I thought the same thing but what i think what is happening is the boar goes up to her and she comes down half way and he stays at the top. but i really don't know.
