When I'm calling you ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh..............

I have often been in a rut but never experienced this phenomena Keith. You are doing us all a service by sharing this super image with us.
Also I guess Slim Whitman will be happy you are keeping his memory alive too!

Phenomenal detail! A few folk in Scotland have felt like this the last few days....

What a marvelous capture! This is first class!

brilliant wildlife image.

Thanks everyone............glad you like it. I hope to get back there for some photos during the rut, work and weather permitting.

Stroll on, Keith. Amazing shot. Looks close enough to want a gun, just in case, goddammit. Were you really that close, or have you got a top notch camera? In London, you say?...that's equally amazing, lol. I knew there was lots of pigeons but...
I'm giving you a little yellow star for this!

Thanks Phill...........300mm lens and a bit of a crop......but yes, pretty close. The deer in Bushy Park are pretty used to people but you have to be careful of the stags at this time of year, they can be aggressive if you get too close (or get between them and the females)!!

Outstanding photo.
