Oh the stag!! What an incredible moment. I can imagine the quiet, the flutter of your heart and his, the flurry of excitement. Thank you as ever for sharing such exquisite moments, Michela x

Thanks very much Rebecca. I’ve seen the herd since (14+) but yes, this was quite something. The movement of his head to fix my position was fascinating.

I especially love your Friday encounter. Somehow it seems like it must have been an honor to be fixed in 3D by that deer.

Thanks Amy. Yes, such a direct encounter was quite something. And yesterday, through the trees, I came across the full herd. Again some mutual inspection, at a greater distance, and then they moved on. I counted 14, but there may have been more.
