A white tailed buck slowly moves slowly through the fields of dried grass foraging on a few green shoots and the remains of a rocky mountain bee plant.
A regal fellow with head held high.
And a wonderful sight that brought some light to a cloudy gray afternoon.
Wishing you a wonderful weekend.
Handsome dude! 🙂

I wonder if a rival male deer would ignore those antlers as we might ignore them?

He definitely has a regal rack. There was something quite vulnerable about him as well–perhaps from not knowing he was observed–just going about his business eating.

Hi, maybe it is that decision he had to make to forage while we were watching…should I stay or should I go?

Do they have guns/bows? He must have decided you meant no harm.
