White-tailed Deer in Milwaukee County Wisconsin on February 9, 2020

White-tailed Deer, 1 of 7 in this herd...

A late birding run this morning produced very few birds but some nice White-tailed Deer. I enjoyed watching 7 nice buck with the antlers for a couple of minutes before the herd drifted into a thicket. Bird of the day was a nice Red-tailed Hawk stashed away in a wooded area. A snowy and beautiful morning out there with light snow falling on and off with temps around 28 degrees. Images were taken on February 9, 2020.

White-tailed Deer in Milwaukee County Wisconsin on January 2, 2020

White out birding I came across a nice White-tailed Deer, buck. It was just roaming around in the woods picking at a few things to eat. I took a couple shots of it and then it bedded down near a doe. Nice to see these big ones around. Cloudy morning but pleasant temps around 35 degrees. Images were taken on January 2, 2019.

White-tailed Deer Swimming at Greenfield Park in Milwaukee Wisconsin on September 12, 2016

When I arrived at Greenfield Park in the early morning a group of 5 White-tailed Deer had just finished gathering around a watering hole at the park. Some feeding was done there, splashing around some and then they headed for the lake. Arriving at the lake they lined up and all swam to the island successfully. What at cool event that was. The swim was so graceful and silent too. Images were taken on September 12, 2016.
