A pictorial diary of my walks around the parks and wild areas of Leicestershire, and occasionally farther afield.

If you're new to my blog, you might like to have a look at the pictures in the older post as well (click on button at the bottom of the page).

I am also a writer, using the pen-name John Gwynant, and I'll occasionally announce my latest book release on the blog.

Bradgate Park - 5 February 2011

We were driving past Bradgate Park on the road from Anstey to Newtown Linford, when Maja noticed a lot of deer close to the wall, I'd always thought there should be a chance of photographing them in that area but have never seen them there before.

So we stopped and I crept over to the wall and was surprised by about 40 deer using the wall as protection from the strong winds.

These last two were squaring up for a fight, it was a bit half hearted and I guess it was only practise. I will post pictures of that when I've sorted them.
