The better to hear you with, my dear! 0883

Large ears, like those of a mule, are a characteristic of mule deer. Their large ears do endow them with a very acute sense of hearing. Although they are related to white tailed deer, their tails have a black tip. Mule deer are generally found west of the Missouri River. There are areas where white tailed deer and mule deer coexist. This yearling watches me carefully with mom not far off in the background. It stood its ground, and was still there when I climbed back into my car and drove off. Though reclusive, they can be fairly easy to photograph at Bosque del Apache NWR in New Mexico. #ILoveNature #ILoveWildlife #WildlifePhotography in #NewMexico #Nature in #America #USA #MuleDeer #Deer #Canon #Bringit #DrDADBooks #ChildrensBooks #Photography #Picoftheday #Photooftheday
