Cautious mother of twins
A week ago, on 17 August 2014, I joined another group of friends to go birding at Carburn Park. For me, the highlight of the four-hour stroll was seeing this beautiful female White-tailed Deer and just a very quick view of her twin fawns (complete with their spots). I had been in the same park the previous day with other friends and we had been very lucky to see this little family - we got a slightly better view of the young ones that day. This second day, Mom came out of the trees and into the tall grasses and I was able to get a few photos - most of them have nice sharp grasses in the foreground with a blurry Mom in the background : ( This doe was so thin, you could see her rib cage. There is plenty to eat at this time of the year, so I don't know why she is so skinny, though I'm sure her growing twins must keep her very busy. She tried to be brave enough to approach us, no doubt hoping for food of some kind, but was still some distance away.
One of the main purposes for the walk was to search for species of tiny Warblers - this is the time they are back in the city. A few species were found, though without binoculars, I couldn't really see them and definitely couldn't photograph them. As always, I turned my camera lens on to other things - such as a Cabbage White Butterfly and some Black Henbane seedpods.
