(Odocoileus virginianus clavium) The Key deer is an endangered deer that lives only in the Florida Keys. It is a subspecies of the white-tailed deer and is the smallest North American deer. Key deer once ranged throughout the lower Florida Keys, but now lives primarily in one area, called Big Pine Key, and surrounding small islands. Taken on No Name Key just off Big Pine Key
Calm early morning at the Key Bridge this morning. About an hour before sunrise. White balance here is at 6000K as shot ... which really warms the light from Baltimore City.
Un believable news this morning waking up and hearing this bridge has been struck and is no longer standing. We just went over this bridge on Sunday afternoon. Use it quite a lot.
Hopefully those that were on the bridge have not been killed. Prayers for them.
This will have major impact to Baltimore on many levels. Travel, shipping, etc ...

My friend Carlos has been photographing the Keys Deer, a subspecies of White-tailed deer, (Odocoileus virginianus clavium) for the last year or two and was kind enough to share some of his locations and company with me. We just got back from a fun couple of days and were lucky enough to get this stag entering the water. I looked up the term "stag" and found: "A stag is another word for a buck, or a male deer. If you spot a family of deer in the woods, the stag is the one with the largest antlers. There are different terms for male deer, depending on the species, and stag usually describes the largest types of deer." I'd say this guy fits the bill. Take care, Mike
Key deer (odocoileus virginianus clavium), the smallest of all white-tailed deer, is a subspecies of the Virginia white-tailed deer. These deer inhabit Big Pine Key and various surrounding keys. They are not found anywhere else in the world.
Due to uncontrolled hunting and habitat destruction, their numbers were estimated less than 50 animals in 1940's. With the establishment of National Key Deer Refuge in 1957 and intensive law enforcement efforts, the population has since increased and has now stabilized. The estimated population is approximately 600 deer on Big Pine Key and No Name Key (this does not include other keys in the deer's range).Highway mortality is the greatest known source of deer loss.
The shoulder height of Key deer is between 24-28 inches. Does weigh 45-65 pounds while bucks weigh 55-75 pounds.
Rutting season activities begin in September, peaking in early October and decreasing gradually through November and December. Some breeding may occur as late as February. The gestation period is 204 days with fawns born April through June. At birth fawns weigh 2-4 pounds.
Antlers are dropped February through March, and re-growth begins almost immediately so that by June, bucks with 2-inch stubs are seen. Antler growth is completed by August, and velvet is rubbed and kicked off in early September.
Key deer feed on native plants such as red, black and white mangroves, thatch palm berries and over 150 other species of plants. Key deer can tolerate small amounts of salt in their water and they will also drink brackish water, but fresh water is essential for their survival. They must also have suitable habitat to ensure their future existence.
No records exist documenting the origin of the deer in the keys. It is believed the deer migrated to the keys from the mainland many thousands of years ago, across a long land bridge. As the Wisconsin Glacier melted, the sea rose dividing the land bridge into small islands known as the Florida Keys.
The earliest mention of Key deer is found in the memoirs of Fontaneda, a shipwrecked Spaniard held captive by the local Indians. Records suggest that the deer were found around Key West and were used for food by residents and ship crews alike. Although early records indicated sporadic wider distribution of Key deer throughout the lower keys, current data indicates they occupy a range from Johnson Keys to Saddlebunch Keys.
Asian short clawed Otters, Indigo and Bronte are really devoted to each other and inseparable. Caught this sweet, brief embrace whilst on their 'pier.'

When I went on a recent outdoor shoot with some photography friends, I discovered a tree dripping with these small Maple keys or seeds. I spent some time trying to pick out a few compositions from among the many clusters. It was a good exercise in seeing the little picture within the big picture. I found 5 favourite images from this session and I will post them one at a time. I like this composition because it gives a sense of the smallness of these keys and allows the other keys around it to become the bokeh in the negative space.
