Thanks Jeff, if they stay in the area they will be safe from hunters.

Perfect title for this one, Debra. Looks like he's been pretty busy, judging by his coat. An excellent capture of the moment and I especially like the autumn colours that surround him.

Debra Plett

I had thought the same thing about his coat as well. Thanks for the comments Heather.

Jeff

Debra Plett

Yves Langlois

Nice shot Debra. Very luminous lighthing. Like the compo with the yellow leafs and white birch trees. Nice looking guy, hope he get a match :)

Debra Plett

Thx Yves, I think things seemed more luminous due to the heavy frost on the ground, the sun had started to warm the ground when I took this picture. I do believe the doe in the bush was his lady.

Description
I spotted this young White-tailed Buck scouting out the area last week but didn't have my camera with me. Today I was lucky and I caught a glimpse of him and I must say he was about to put the moves on a rather large Doe that had just gone into the bush about 3 minutes before him. He did pick up her trail and moved into the bush in the same spot that she had gone through. This young guy was without a doubt ready for an adventure...the chase was on.
