Momma nuzzling her fawn. Notice the ticks on her ears. All the deer have them. I've noticed some fawns that have them around their eyes. Everything in Nature is supposed to have a role. I've yet to figure out what a tick's is. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
After stalking the Roe buck and doe a couple of days ago, I was keen to have another go in a different place.
I used to photograph Roe a few years ago and now I was keen to have another go.
Roe can be very addictive and it seems I've got the bug. More accurately, the bugs got me.
I had to crawl through the long grass, and if the thistles didn't get me, the midges and the "mozzies" made no mistake.
It seemed to take forever to get close enough for this shot. The little critters bit me in places they had no right to go.
I think it's back to the bird photography for a while.
This doe walks with a pronounced limp from an injured right front leg, but seems to do OK otherwise. I was lucky enough to catch her crossing a wetland area in some nice, late afternoon light.
Small doe next to the hiking trail. I was probably about 10 years away when she crossed the trail in front of me. Never did run. Just started eating after I took this photo.
Last location of the morning was Doe Hill. 66302 passes with 6M19 0723 Doncaster Up Decoy to Toton. The clouds had just started to bubble up, meaning it was pretty much game over for the day. 27th April 2016.
Heres a piece I did with Doe and Orkho while they were in town. We were originaly going to do a halloween themed piece but ended up being to lazy to push it all the way and so we just focused on our pieces and enjoying the day drinking chillin and painting.

These beautiful creatures are coming around several times a day, I suspect they have fawns nearby and are quite hungry right now, I try to make sure they have food out there when they arrive, I am so hoping to get to see the fawns shortly!
This isn't a crop, it is SOOC, I was inside and gently pulled up the window and the screen so there was no glass between us, I just put my camera out the window and she never moved!
The other fawn was too far away to get in the pix. On my way home tonight I decided to take a back road, glad I did. The doe's coat has begun to change from the lighter tan color into the darker winter color.
I didn't have the right lens for this, but at least she had the grace to pose for me. Autumn really shows the advantages of deer coloration.
This lovely Doe and another one stayed with me for quite sometime, she didn't mind me at all and I was able to get a number of photo's.. Whitby. Nov. 2018
Urban Does
Two of the neighborhood deer herd decided to take advantage of the bird seed I threw out this morning.
How habituated to people are these two? I got about six feet away at times as I shewed them back onto the existing grass and off my soft new lawn. I regularly see them grazing during the day without a care about what is happening around them.
I have a bad feeling about their prospects for a future with such a low fear of people and things like cars.
A muntjac doe seen late this afternoon in a field close to home. She was with a buck and the pair of them were not at all bothered by my presence. I was able to observe them feeding and got a number of shots of them. I saw another muntjac buck in a field on the opposite side of the road and a pair of roe deer in the same field as these muntjacs. I managed to get even closer to the roe deer and they hung around for a lot longer than the shy muntjacs.
Well I assume that is what it spells! Seen under a disused railway bridge whilst out with the dog and just loved the vibrant pink and blue against the brickwork. No flash, just handheld and pumped up the ISO a little as it was pretty dark under there, oh and had the lens wide open!
The annual deer rut is just beginning, however before it gets into full swing I thought I'd try and get some different shots of these lovely mammals. Here a young fallow deer suckles briefly from its mother.
