The Red Deer stags in Bushy Park are always photographed but often the hinds get overlooked.

Here is a mother (lying) and her year old fawn standing. I think the mother has a problem with her lower jaw as her teeth are sticking out but she looks quite healthy otherwise.
Lovely capture Emma!!

Love the muted colour and lovely composition here Emma. I'm glad that you at least don't neglect the hinds.

Gorgeous. They must be reasonably tame to let you get close (even with a 200mm lens!)

Oh excellent, fab shot

@pamknowler @simster @tristansmum Thank you, the Hinds are recovering from all the attention from the stags in recent weeks! @steampowered actually I was using the 24-70mm (slightly cropped). If the stags are not around and I take my time I can usually get to within 20 feet or so before they start to move away. It was so grey I didn't bother taking the 70-200mm as I didn't think I could get a fast enough shutter speed.

@emmadurnford It's an amazing shot! Well done you for having the patience and stalking skills (ooh - that doesn't sound right, does it? :o))
