I find it difficult to take photos of wildlife. They usually run away as soon as you make eye contact. These deer stopped long enough for me to grab my phone.

They look as though they wanted you to take their photo.

It’s so funny… i had dropped just to say a quick thank you for the follow, and instead ended up spending time admiring all your pics, including Oops and Eye Spy. You’ve interpreted the WPC prompts so beautifully. And, now am wondering why t took me so long to discover you. So many of my friends already know you, how come i didn’t land on your blog earlier. 🙂 Congrats on Anand’s Epic Awesomeness Award 🙂

I like it, I think wildlife sometimes the picture is a Can You Find the hidden object? but it is so neat to see in their natural space. Two thumbs up from here!

Wildlife IS difficult. Most of the time, when I find them through the viewfinder, they take off and I get a great butt picture. I have a whole collection of animal butts.

Lovely shot – we have somewhere special near us that has deer too – such a privilege

It certainly is a privilege! A few years ago we had an awfully long and cold winter. It was hard in the deer population. It makes me happy to see them coming back again ☺ Thank you for sharing with me!

Oh what a sad tale we are a little luckier as the deer are protected and looked after in such events but we have few of them. So happy they are returning here. Nature needs all the blessings it can get

People usually use a long telephoto lens to get close ups of wildlife… Hide behind a tree. Then jump out and take the picture! LOL! Also, if a picture is clear enough, you can always crop it and blow it up. Hope this helps…

Actually it does help…I do know of a place…No telephoto lens though. I did try to crop this one, but since it was taken by my phone they just ended up looking fuzzy. Thanks for the feedback Spartacus! I appreciate it!

Oh I love this photo so much! I used to live in Flushing Township, MI, and we had 5 acres of meadow that was bordered by a deep woods and we saw deer like these all of the time. This picture could have been taken from my deck! I moved to Bay City 5 years ago and your photo made me homesick…but in a wonderfully good way. Thank you so much for sharing this!

The dried grasses (?) are sort of swirling around here and there – I am reminded of the ocean. The way the scene is set would translate beautifully onto canvas in oils. Thanks for taking the time to visit my site.

Your welcome Frances. And thank you for stopping by mine. Do you paint? I have never mastered landscapes but you are right, this might be fun to try, even if they turn out to be stick figures in grass. ☺

The deer look great against the bare, late-autumn landscape. And as Margaretha mentioned in her comment above, they are very well canouflaged.

Great pic! Looks like a beautiful area too 🙂 It’s funny, when I lived in the suburbs I used to see “wildlife” (deer, raccoons, rabbits, etc.) in the back yard all the time. Now that I live in the country I actually see far fewer animals. I guess that’s because they have someplace to hide out here, rather than being forced to feed in suburban back yards.
