A Herd Of White Tailed Deer In Our Backyard

Yesterday four white-tailed deer appeared in the woods behind our house. They are our roaming subdivision deer. They made themselves
quite comfortable, as you can see here. This photo, which reveals three of the deer, is from the first shots taken in somewhat low light
with a new lens. The photo below was cropped to reveal the details of the deer in front. He or she clearly seemed to be aware
of my presence in the living room!

Nikon D200 ,Nikkor 300mm f/4 ED-IF AF-S
1/1000s f/6.3 at 500.0mm iso800 with Nikon TC17EII full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

The difference between your yard and mine is a fence and snow and that's about all...oh and ours are Mule deer...and we feed them too!

You don't have to travel far to capture beautiful wildlife, Jay. Your backyard provides them ;o)

I would wager a bet that they are eating your shrubs right about now. Great catch.

So lucky to have a chance to see a deer at the back of your house! I only see a partition wall! I like the way you shot this deer with the branches ...... V~
