2409_1849 Three Very Alert Whitetails
Three White-tailed Deer, poised to run - which they did a moment later. Not seen in this shot is buck number four, closer and to the left of this trio. He had already turned back and was out of focus; I cropped this from the horizontal original.
They are going into the rut right about now, along with the Mule Deer, although the latter are more numerous here and much easier to find. I'm hoping for some decent behavioural shots over the next three weeks or so - of the mule deer if not the whitetails.
