Just a little roe deer at dusk!





The sun was setting and he quietly walked into the field, which was not long mowed but in which, as you can see the clover has recovered fast and other wild flowers are in bloom.

He paused to 'beat up' a taller plant - a ragwort I think - and then he sat down closed his eyes and rested.

This is the time of the 'rut' for the roe deer, when the males compete for the females and he may have been tired and he may have been defeated but it was nice to see him, so here are some photos and a short snippet of film.
