yes i know i only take photos of deer & swans but i had to put these on here , what a superb morning i have had following these beautifull unpredictable creatures , makes it worth getting up

I am pretty sure theres some rutting going on as i am sure i saw 2 stags today & only got pics of 1 of them, one of them was making that sound they make :laugh: got close up as i dared given the size of the things , pics not the best quality but given the conditions i had to endure there okish

Hope you enjoy looking at them as i have got to have walked 5 miles today & am tired , knackered & a bit battered, but it was worth it :yes:

I missed the photo of a lifetime by a gnats cock of 2 doe's jumping in the pond & swimming a little way , never seen anything like it , just wasnt quick enough to even get a blurry photo of it, still theres always tomorrow

Just a few more

is this a woodpecker ?

I was sat in the middle of this road a way back & i was hoping to get the herd to jump the fence but only this one did , the sun was to the side of me so the pics not good, thats one of the deer that went in the pond as its still wet
