Red Deer

As a bonus on our Monday's walk, we passed by a herd of Red Deer. There were a group of 9 or 10 of them munching away on the juniper bushes. I didn't have a zoom lens, but managed to get a few reasonable shots of them. I liked this one as it gives a feel for the natural environment of old birch trees and juniper, as well as the deer itself, tucked away in the hollow, but keeping a close eye on me.

Golf for me, later today. First round since the end of September last year. That'll be interesting!
It took me a while to spot this guy especially on my phone. Amazing set of antlers!

Yes I like this shot too - he looks very curious.

So well camouflaged, but I see him!

@kjarn Yes, they blend in very well. Sometimes you only see the hint of antlers amongst the trees. Move towards them and you soon see them all though as they get up and get ready to run.

you were very alert to note this deer as camouflaged as it is.

He’s very well camouflaged. I had to search — but then I’m looking at it on a little phone screen 🤣

An impressive fellow! So glad you didn't crop this in - love seeing him in his environment.

A lovely composition, I almost didn't spot him, he's so well hidden
