The Visitor

Found this 8-point buck in my yard a little before dusk last night. He was standing perhaps 25' from my porch. The doe with him dashed off behind the forsythia when I opened the front door to snap a picture. I got my picture then waved my arms at him. He dashed off into the woods in the background.

That is very very cool. Bucks never presented themselves for pics when I lived in the woods.

It really has a lot to do with the time of day, and how much in the way of tasty vittles your garden grows. Dawn and dusk are their favorite times to get up and go looking for food.

I'm sorry it was so out of focus. At least we could all tell what it is. Next lesson in photography = wildlife.

You got a much better picture of your buck than I did of the doe and twin fauns having dinner last night right across the street from our place. Mainly because they were screened by all the foliage they were eating. Maybe I'll post my pathetic pictures later on anyway. :)
