Hurry Springtime

Shiloh,TN

After two weeks only seeing one animal in the park, this afternoon was cool and sunny, but the ladies and gents who reside in the park returned. As I asked my wife, do deer take vacations?

I am convinced that deer are naturally very curious. They really seem to be interested in things around them, especially those which are not very familiar. A shot I will post soon will show this well...

I like the geometry that they formed. They really are interested in that new camera model...with that long white lens. I love how their ears convey their interest. You really were shooting in some lovely light. You held your DOF perfectly on this one. Very nice.

Tried to suggest that to her quietly while shooting this one, Bob.
She's an individualist. Actually, she's the one the others were following.

Lovely group portrait. It might be interesting if the
deer in the background moved left so her head alligned
vertically with the other two.

They match their surroundings perfectly. Lovely photo.
As Nature has no eyes in our sense, l wonder it matches colors.

How cool! They don't seem alarmed. Just checking you out. Sweeeeeet light!
