L'insouciance de la jeunesse. Bien que m'ayant repéré, ce faon n'a pas hésité à traverser le pré en venant vers moi. Peut-être voulait-il m'impressionner 😊
The carelessness of youth. Although having spotted me, this fawn did not hesitate to cross the meadow coming towards me. Maybe he wanted to impress me 😊

(Capreolus capreolus) We have a growing number of roe deer on our golf course. It's amazing how well they blend into the landscape when they want to. Generally you only notice them if they twitch their ears and you are looking hard!
Was down in Dumfries and Galloway yesterday for some wildlife. A quiet day however there were some cool appearances. This roe deer was grazing, we kept very still and quiet and we’re rewarded with a close up of this stunning animal. I hope you have a good weekend.
This Roe Deer buck was grazing amongst Gorse on Stoborough Heath one evening a couple of weeks ago. As it made its way over a small ridge, it stopped in a perfect spot between some clumps of Gorse and heather to keep an eye on me before disappearing. I was able to get this silhouette of it against the western sky. It looks like it was shedding some velvet from a fresh pair of antlers.
I saw this majestic animal whilst walking through Minley Forest with my Sigma 150-600mm lens. Great moment.

After speaking to a gentleman who knows a fair amount about deer he gave me the follow info:
Whilst in Spring, the antlers are still growing and therefore have this thick fur like texture on them. This is called "velvet" and provides extra blood flow to the antlers to help the growth. The estimate age of this roe is around 4-5 years old. In April, the roe will scratch this velvet off which will enable the wooden like textured antlers to come through.

A different experience in every season: Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens are exquisite, tranquil and inspiring all year round. Different footpaths, cycle routes and horse trails will lead you – with or without the aid of a forest ranger – through the beauty of one of the Netherlands' most unique areas of nature. There are no less than 80 fens in this stunning green expanse – pretty impressive, right?
Four seasons
Whether it’s the frozen fairy-tale fens of the winter, the dynamics of nature coming to life in spring, the musical croaking of frogs in the summer, or the explosion of colours in the autumn: Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens are a feast for all the senses.
Spot kingfishers, deer and roe deer, or bear witness to the wide variety of insects and water creatures in the fens and ditches. And after an exhilarating day of activity or sport, head to one of the large terraces to enjoy the peace and quiet and a tasty snack, lunch or dinner.Oisterwijk's Forests & Fens Groot Speijck Visitor Centre has a great terrace, as does Boshuis Venkraai. And both are ideal places to relax and soak up the surroundings.
An evening photographing hares and this wonderful roe deer fawn popped out to join us, lovely to see.
