Yesterday was one of those mornings where everything comes together. The frost, the mist, the light and young Spike obligingly striking a pose! #nature #photography #deer #Winterwatch

@Abeesknee3101 Indeed! At this time of year, the bucks are scenting everything. They rub their cheeks against tree trunks and use glands under their front hooves to scrape the ground. They can be quite pungent too, if you get close enough for a whiff!

@YearWithDeer Yikes. That sounds like it takes some elegant precision...😬
