Roe Deer with Weird Antlers or Fallow Deer? – June 17th 2008

July 3rd, 2008

I was out in the woods with Dave Burns (my mate) when we came across this Roe Deer. It has antlers that I haven’t seen before with ‘growths’ at the bottom of the antlers. It isn’t a great photo as we couldn’t get close enough with there being two of us:

Can anyone comment on this photo if they find it a little unusual or let me know if this is a common thing…

Eagle eyed Shelley (my girlfriend) spotted the pair in a field, busily eating away! This is my first fawn caught on film! It was fantastic :) We dodged the traffic to walk up close enough to take the photos (after nearly putting the car in a ditch in a rush to pull over and find a place to park) – unfortunately it was too far away to get some really sharp pictures – but you can’t have it all :) Here is one:

I got another glimpse of the fox cubs in the back garden this morning. They are growing up fast! Check out 1 of 3 cubs here:
