When I’m doing a photo walk, I don’t walk too quickly so as not to miss anything. That paid off this day as I came around a bend and saw this young buck. We both froze, I lifted my camera and started taking shots, he came toward me, then gradually relaxed enough to even start to graze… until a cyclist came pedaling from behind him. In a few seconds he was far enough into the meadow that I couldn’t even see his antlers.

Nice capture.
Thanks, Dan. This type of sighting always makes the walk special.
What a blessing those moments were though! He’s a beauty!
They are and he was. 😁
the buck stops here ?
😁. That he did.
Wow how cool is that!
Very. 🥰
What a magical encounter, Janet!
It was and one I both great enjoyed and appreciated. 😊
Oh encounters like that are such a gift! Thank you for sharing.
My pleasure, Joey. I’m happy you enjoyed it. 🙂
