These 2 beautiful stags came into the garden last night.... one with big antlers and the other with little bumps where his antlers will grow.

"Deer can adapt well to just about any habitat. they prefer to live on the "edge" of habitats...for instance woods or croplands. They will use the woodlands for cover and shelter and the open land to graze in. Deer have a great sense of hearing and an excellent sense of smell. "

It is always exciting when the deer pass through our garden or field and I still reach for the camera even though I have taken hundreds of shots since we moved here. It will be great when the summerhouse is finished ... we should get some great deer shots up there. It ll be a bit like a hide.
