Muntjac II

Sadly not a technically great photo, but I was stood in the garden this afternoon listening to see if I could hear the falcons again when a muntjac deer wandered past me. It was literally only 3 or 4 metres from me and I don't think it had seen me, but it shot off as I raised my camera for some photos. If only I had got it set to ISO 800/1600 I would have got some good images, but sadly there was not time to make any changes, so this is better than nothing. It's tail and hind legs are actually pretty sharp.
Deers can really move! I like how this photo gives a sense of motion.

@cjphoto Thanks. It really did shift once it saw me! I took several in burst, but this was the only one that was anywhere near usable.
