Deer Hunting

Bicycling Pair

"Shouldn't we be wearing blaze orange?" the woman says to me as they pass by.  I reply, "Don't worry I won't shoot you."   Well, I did, photographically speaking.

I went deer hunting with my camera at Coon Rapids Park Reserve.  I saw a nice 10 point buck, but he wanted nothing to do with me.  The doe's on the other hand seemed more sociable and wanted to pose for me.  Isn't that the way it typically is?

  11. I love, love, love deer. Lovely shot!
    I must dig out my photos of Daisy the Kudu who thought she was a horse (as she had been hand reared on a farm) and she would eat out of your hand and even let you touch her head if you were fast.
