Two from the Backyard

I had seen these two walking through the woods in the early morning yesterday and hoped I might see them again. Late in the afternoon I discovered them browsing in my garden. As soon as the first shutter went off they perked up and tried to figure out where I was (in my living room blind, shooting through the window).

I know the image is not great technically, but it was fun to have them around for the day. (It was even more fun to send this image to my brother and nephew, who came back empty handed from their first father-son deer hunt in Alabama).

Nice! We had a 6 point that hung around a couple days in between hunting seasons.. My husband who shoots rifle and blk powder season was about crazy! LOL! Nice bucks there, Chuck! Glad you got to catch a memory...

Nice catch, Chuck! I saw a beautiful doe in the neighborhood last night, but it was far too dark for any pictures.

Nice catch. I rarely see two bucks together and haven't seen a deer on the farm since the start of deer season.

These two must have been pretty smart to make it to this age, both of those bucks are probably at least 4 years old and they have nice racks as well, this is a great capture Chuck I love it

They look awesome. The deer in my yard are very fleeting....never stick around very long due to Harvey, my yellow lab Even tho' Harvey is blind now, he can smell them and one bark sends them running. Oh well.. I enjoy watching the interaction. Nice shot, Chuck.
