About how close i was before i lived at this place, man the males were scarry with thier full racks when you turned a coener, its back slowly away and go back to where you where, even if its 5 degrees outside. Thanks!

Heh, yeah it was hard to walk from my little apartment cabin to the main house at night when they were hanging out. It had no bathroom so it was a hold it till it moved on.

A wonderful shot! Contrast might seem a bit off, not sure why (might be just my eyes). Otherwise, it's a very cute and adorable pic, reminds me of something right out of Bambi. Well done!
