1st Year Stag
I managed to catch this young Stag (probably 1st year) trying to emulate it's elders by attempting to 'roar'. I like the expression on it's face, hope it makes you smile?

Taken on a day out with Danny Green, in Bradgate Park Leicestershire last month.

Canon 50D, Sigma 150-500mm lens.

f6.3, ISO 200, 1/400sec, @ 500mm. :wavey:

First year indeed. Nice expression but a bit oversharpened if you ask me. But it did make me laugh.
