None of the following photos will win any awards but collectively they’re a fairly accurate representation of one of the more pleasant mornings I’ve had in the field recently. (11 photos)
I don’t post photos of mule deer to my blog very often but this one was so curious about me I felt I should return the favor. (3 photos)
It’s not overstating the case to say I was both shocked and amazed when I looked at these photos on my screen. What I saw was so very unexpected!
In almost ten years of regular trips to Antelope Island (roughly 600-700 trips total) I’ve never had a wildlife encounter like this one!
Last month I photographed two Mule Deer bucks that showed decidedly different effects of the rut.
Four days ago I had a particularly interesting morning on Antelope Island and thought readers might enjoy a chronological reporting of my experience. Some of these images are better than others but as a group these photos of varying quality document my 2 1/2 hour morning on that wonderful island.
Last week we spent a few days camping and exploring Utah’s west desert. A herd of Mule Deer composed of over a dozen animals hung around the general vicinity of our campsite for most of the time we were there. They still had most of their winter coat so they were scruffy and sun-bleached but they displayed a couple of interesting behaviors that I was able to photograph.
We had a wonderful time out on the west desert again this morning. The light was great, the birds were singing and everything was clear, crisp and clean. This post is meant to give you a feel for what it was like.
