Staring eyes
The dogs already passed along the trail and I could stay there and take a few photos. It seemed he didn’t really know what to think of me.
Body measurements: 160 - 250cm Tail: 12 - 15 cm Weight: 75 - 200kg
The red deer is the biggest animal living in the wild in Europe after the Elk. during the summer they are red brown and in winter grey brown. Fully grown stags have antlers with more than 8, mostly with 12 and sometimes with more than 20 ends.
Less common now than some years ago since they live mostly in big stretches of forest.
The roaring of the stags during rutting season (Mid Sept - Beginning of Oct) is one of the most amazing autumn phenomena.

Die Hunde waren schon einige Meter weiter und so konnte ich in Ruhe ein paar Fotos knipsen.
Koerpermasse: 160 - 250cm Schwanz: 12 - 15 cm Gewicht: 75 - 200kg

Ausgewachsene Hirsche haben Geweihe mit mehr als 8, meisstens 12 und manchmal auch mehr als 20 Enden.
Sie kommen in grossen, zusammenhaengenden Waldgebieten vor, vor allem im Bergland. Frueher waren sie viel weiter verbreitet.

I love the idea of this post and I plan on participating. I took several photos the other day of something quite unique and I need one more photo tomorrow and I will have a post to share. Except I likely won't share it on the blog you know, because it is only for photos and minimal words. Still, I will come back and link and you will know me!
I'm not sure why this one is that dark. He should be more reddish. Maybe I'm missing something and it is another sort of deer. But if so then it's not in my book
The one you describe is what this deer type usually looks like or the ones that are called "Dammwild" in German. I'm at loss for the English translation

I think I visited you on the other blog a few times. Am looking forward to your post
!
Have a happy happy Saturday!




I guess I do, Typ0
Thanks, Dan & Kristi
