Trophy
A healthy young buck stands alert as he watches for obvious danger. In a month the first of the deer hunting seasons begin and the dangers will be a lot higher and come from further distances away.
One aspect of wildlife photography I did not anticipate is how attached you can become to animals that you have seen develop from birth. This proud fellow is not aware that he will soon become someone's fall trophy.
