runforyourlife 361 Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Finally found them! I have been scratching about this area trying to find the herd all together. I had heard of an elderly birdspotter that there were at least 10 of these red deer.. Last season i posted a pic of one stag. And i also saw 3 different individual females in different areas throughout the year. Yesterday evening i finally found them all together. They werent on my permission were i had previously seen them but about 1 to 2 miles away. Sat in a very quiet area, which takes some getting to through thick undergrowth. The god thing to see was that there is 2 stags, both big and healthy. These pictures were taken with my mobile phone, as for some shit reason i didnt have my camera with me this time! I will however be going back there today to get some much better pictures(hopefully). It really was a great sight to see that many in this area... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
