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.

After the Rut 29 October 2014

Bradgate park again and the rut is pread put the Fallows seem to have had theirs while the Reds are just starting.

This one seems to be hiding out of the way, unfortunately he forgot how big his antlers are.

It is all just a little too much for this Fallow Deer, he's got his head down for a good sleep.

Later when he raised his head, he still didn't look awake.

The White Fallows seem to be doing well, these look like winners.
1/1600 @ 7.1,  iso 400, 235 mm
They'll even challenge a camera if they catch sight of it.
1/800 @ 7.1,  iso 400, 180 mm
The Champion - or at least he looks every inch a champion, standing there with his chest proudly displayed and head held high.
1/320 @ 7.1,  iso 400, 200 mm
