Dont know who was the most startled when we came across each other in the white wilderness of Northumberland.
Roe deer are traditionally associated with woodlands and agricultural land on low lying ground. Over the last 10 years anecdotal evidence suggested that there was an increasing population on moorlands particularly in Perthshire, Angus and the Grampians.
Roe Deer doe at Linwood Moss, Renfrewshire. Jul 07 2011. These pics were taken with my 150mm lens – perhaps from 30ft. I reckoned she probably had a fawn hidden in the long grass so moved gently away.
Seen at Insh Marshes RSPB Nature Reserve. The antlers are in velvet. The deer was busy eating plants growing under the water in the marsh.
There were at least 3 Roe Deer here, all eating plants from the water
She came out into the clearing, very relaxed had a scratch fed on the grass for a few minutes then diapered back into the woods.
I went hunting for Roe deer in the morning, but I only saw three and they were all runing away, except this one... for a second.
THe photo isn't that great, but nevertheless it makes me happy to get one...

Visitors in the back garden this afternoon. A couple of Roe deers on the snowy lawn. As I opened the window they heard me and ran up the hill into the forest.
