On a recent walk we were lucky enough to be able spend a fair amount of time observing and watching a very handsome Mule Deer Buck escorting his harem through the forest.
While we hung out and watched the whole group of deer pass through the male stood watch curious yet calm and quiet.
Before the group moved away and into the deeper reaches of the forest the male put his nose to the sky to make sure all were present and accounted for.
A nice surprise and the highlight of the stroll.

We’ve seen similar behaviors from the White Tails in our area. Nice specimen.

Nice buck! He’s much bigger than the one I just took pictures of in my yard. He had two does and four fawns.
