Antlers Shed

I was able to make a quick run down to Cades Cove in Smoky Mountain National Park this weekend. I was coaching in Knoxville and had several hours between sessions. Easy to justify a quick hour down to the park!

 

You are almost always guaranteed to see some great wildlife in this unique valley. Here a young buck who has shed his antlers is munching away unconcerned by the human taking his picture. I actually had to move back because I was trying to get some of the mountains behind him into the frame. He kept munching closer and closer. Larger.
