Sometimes you get the shot you want, sometimes they stick their tongue out at you!
I was on my way out of Inglewood Bird Sanctuary when a Mule Deer Doe and two fawns crossed the path in front of me. The fawns were very cute, but they quickly made it clear how they felt about me.
Sometimes you get the shot you want, and sometimes you get the butt!
I just missed a great chance to make some images of a tiny fawn because I didn’t have my camera ready. This shot of Mom’s butt was all I could get by the time I got my gear working. She stopped to watch me from a distance for awhile, but soon ran off. I saw the fawn trying to follow, but then it simply disappeared in the thick prairie grasses. The doe ran fast, so I really don’t believe that the fawn could possibly keep up, so I suspect that it simply laid down in the field and waited there until the doe felt safe enough to return…
