squatting doe

Nikon 5100 f5.6 1/160 ISO 800 55-200 taken during early evening hours. This is not a normal thing for deer to do in a persons yard so I thought that if she would stay long enough to get the shot I would try it. Sometimes I think she was just trying to tell me something else if you know what I mean

Can't a lady have a little privacy!? The doe is nice and sharp. I do find the hose in the lawn somewhat distracting.

When ya gotta go; ya gotta go. The hose can be removed, and maybe the globe resting on her back also. Lots of opportunity here since she looks like she's not spooked by you being there.

Cameras are everywhere these days, so careful what you do, case in point. :biggrin:
There are some compositional flaws in my opinion but I think the photo does tell a chapter in the story of urban wildlife.
