A bellowing stag.
Alert and on guard.
Another stag defending his territory!
A fine set of antlers. All these red deer stags were viewed ftom the Griesdale hide at Leighton Moss.It was a couple of hours before dusk when they appeared.I had been sitting patiently listening to the stags bellowing within the cover of the reedbeds,when they decided to show themselves in a small clearing.I was certain they would clash ,but all they did were eye one another up and roar their disapproval at each other!Maybe they had allready duelled earlier, and were just content to keep their distance!
Paul. What a magnificent series of some of the Leighton Moss stags.They really did pose for you. Hoping to see them for myself this week.... Brilliant shots Paul... Well done.
ReplyDeleteHello Paul,
ReplyDeleteYep very nice to bump into you at LM, it had been a stressful day up to that point, but all's well that end well. See you round all the best David.
That first shot is a cracker. Great capture.
ReplyDeleteSome great images. Sounds like these stags are much milder than those on the wild isle of Rum!
ReplyDeleteI too enjoyed this set of images of the Red Deer stags at Leighton Moss Paul. There is a certain amount of guarantee of seeing these elegant creatures especially from the Griesdale Hide though I'm not sure whether or not the time of day counts towards success or failure.
