Pronghorns, deer, bison and other ungulates in the wild...

Never thought I'd be able to take pictures of deer with a 50/1.8 II, but man was I wrong. These city dwellers are used to humans not threatening them, living within the reach of the underground. Photo has been manipulated to remove some twigs from the top.

Don't you just love it when you can be right in the midst of these beautiful creatures! Nice.

Yes. I'm sort of collecting initials during my daily commute: ant, buzzard, crane, deer, finch, grebe, heron, kite, pheasant, sparrowhawk, tawny owl, woodpecker (and a few duplicate letters, of course).
