Thanks, Troy. Julie, if you look real close you can see parts of two more legs, but the grass makes it hard to even see those ":^) Cheers, -mikey

Nice one Michael. I am only counting four legs here. Two heads are better than one. Love the title.

Good job and thanks for the interesting link - maybe someday you'll get a shot of them on the run.

Great shot! I've been seeing loads of deer along my commute and always intend to stop and take a picy but alas i'm driving and they are always on my right so probably not a great idea. This is well composed and the WB and focus is perfect. jano

Perfect title to tell the story, Mikey. They're so close they're almost one two-headed antelope. Thanks for the good photo and the additional, interesting information. I learn so much here... ~Lydia

Nice tones. One eats, one keeps watch, it's good to have a buddy.
