Hi Folks,

Have enjoyed my time at Richmond Park over the last few days. I've finally got my 'eye in' again after not covering the rut since 2003 and feel ready for my trip to Mull on Friday for the wilderness variety. Something tells me I will not get anywhere as close as you can Richmond! I think I will miss that rather civilised park of the next two weeks.

Plenty of great red deer on the site already so thought I'd post this fallow deer enviro. C&C Welcomed!

Nice one Elliott, perhaps a tad tight at the bottom for the virtual legs...

Have a good time on Mull.... Are you back by the 4th Nov?

Agree with Phil though - bit tight at the bottom :wavey:

Ok, its a bit tight :smile: I can live with that.

Thanks Barrie. Yep, that's where I saw most of them too. I often find a few scattered in Sidmouth Woods and around Oak Lodge. Worth a look if you return. :wavey:
