Deer Me

Out on the trail tonight I was just passing through a section of woodland about a mile from my house, I hadn't seen another person for about 30 minutes and was aware of some movement ahead of me. To my amazement I saw a roe deer boldly standing on the path eyeing me up his nerve only getting to him as I approached so much that he bounded into the nearby bracken and fern, we both stopped and admired each other from a distance until we parted company.

What really amazed me was I never knew we had deer in the woods near us and he was obviously part of a group as he quite a young buck.
