That last one ... I can't identify it. Looks like a sitting bull, but I'm not positive.

Srsly, great pics! Love the Eagles.

I spotted this Roe Deer about half an hour ago when out with my canine guest.

It was taken in a bit of a hurry with my phone camera so results were never likely to be award winning but there we are.

Fargon, you've got a nice view from you patio. Great pictures!

And Carruthers, good job spotting that. I guess it wasn't that far away if you got the shot with your phone, but still, I often don't see a deer until they move.

It was pure luck that I spotted the deer. I was walking from L to R as you look at the picture and just happened to glance to my left and saw the deer watching me. It was only five or six yards away.

I had to take the photo in some haste and in the end had to crop it quite considerably so it isn't exactly a work of art but I think it was worth including here.

More than a little jealous, right now.

Also, I see what's beside the Sun Drop...


Also: That eagle in flight in post #322 is outstanding!

Carruthers, what an excellent catch!

I take it that's a fairly rare occurrence where you are?

It is a fairly rare occurrence but deer numbers have been increasing quite markedly in recent years.

However, I think most people only know that deer are around when they spot one at the side of the road which has perished in a traffic collision.

This morning's sighting was only about a quarter of a mile from home on the edge of the town and I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

We also get the Muntjac which was an ornamental species introduced to large country estates in the Victorian era. Inevitably, many escaped and they've been breeding over much of southern England for the last century or so.

Its origins are in SE Asia and the Indian sub-continent. It isn't a particularly attractive animal but it's probably the one most often seen.

I certainly wouldn't swap a hundred Muntjac for this morning's Roe Deer.

ETA Thanks Bruce! You posted that as I was typing.

Thanks for posting those images, fargon.

The highlight of my visits to the USA was seeing the wide variety of wildlife you have.

I shall never forget the flight of Pelicans I saw as I was driving north through Wyoming and the Ospreys in Yellowstone and near the Buffalo Bill dam.

I hope to return one day and with luck I shall add the Bald Eagle to my list of sightings.

It's easier than ever. They have really made a comeback. I saw one on Sunday morning.
