Bloody hell how big is your garden?

Back home at my parents house the garden backs onto a woods, and we have a meadow section with long grass and apple trees and that, wake up at dawn and peak out into the garden and there will usually be a few deer, usually a mum and babmis. Always lovely to see!

I stumble across dear every now and again in the most unlikely places - they are quite majestic oddly enough

There are lots round here (Cambs) local parks, fields, one infamous incident in the local town of a Muntjac (? Or Fallow) being trapped in Superdrug many years ago.

Also had the pleasure to see a magnificent Stag whilst staying in Applecross.


Beautiful creatures.


Taste great too. I'm not ashamed to say I have some local Vennison in my freezer.

Any sledge tracks?

We are often pleased to find a pair in our field. As we keep sheep in it, it is fully stock-fenced but that doesn't inconvenience them - they can leap over it easily. I suprised one with an MR2 on a lane in North Yorks and it cleared a 6 foot hedge on top of a 3 foot bank. I know the car needed a wash, but I didn't think it was that disgusting.

ETA: Nice pics BTW. Way better than anything I've managed.

I shoot perfectly straight, no need to straighten photos one bit

tbh if a hunter had appeared at that point I might have bent his gun round my neck & given it him back, we let hunters roam across our land they are very polite & ask so no probs but if I have first dibs then its mine to shoot as I wish, the fact that its with a camera is my choice

Think she is quite young anyway which the Chasse here would lean away from, would love to see a Stag.

Great photos!

We used to get deer in our garden (Muntjac) - they seemed to like eating the bushes. But we've had to fence the garden off when our new dogs arrived. So now we see them at the bottom of the garden through the fence (and hear them!).
