Red-deer-bellowing_8213
Now here's a story - our local forest has many fallow deer and just one red deer - this is he. Each year he tries to join the rut with the fallow bucks but since he is 4 times their size, they wisely have nothing to do with him. When I got to the woods this morning fallow bucks and does were running all over the place until they managed to find safety. However, I'm afraid Red is getting a bit old now to do the chasing and after catching his breath, he let out a few bellows of frustration and wandered off. Poor chap.
