Unexpected resident

We saw several deer across the water in the tidal marsh too far away to photograph, but this one was almost right next to us when walking back to the lotus ponds.

******

We went back to the 700-acre Kenilworth Park and Aquatic Gardens in Washington, D.C., to see the lotuses and water lilies in advance of their annual festival this weekend, mainly to avoid the horrendous parking problems during the event.

It’s an amazing area within the D.C. city limits and only a 12-minute drive from our house. We need to go there more often!

A fine capture of this impressive creature. You have put the Sony RX10 IV to good use! I have the III version which I should use more than I do.
