BuckFight .:.Fallow Deer fighting during rutting season

I was lying behind a tree when these two males start fighting right in front of my nose.
They were quite aggressive and I must admit that it was a pretty spectacular fight to witness....

Great picture! As mentioned above, nice timing and lighting! The flying dust particles really add action to the picture. Well done! You really had to be close @150mm. Posted 13 years ago
