Playing chicken with the buck
There was a sizable herd of deer in the meadow this afternoon, so I left the trail and headed out into the meadow to see what I could see...something blipworthy maybe. This buck was the nearest one to me, so I walked toward him thinking "blip". He headed steadily toward me, rapidly closing the gap between us. Resolutely putting one foot in front of another, he marched closer and closer and never took his eyes off of me. Maybe he just wanted a handout, but I decided not to stay around and find out. As I commented the other day in this blip, I am comfortable with the does, but wary of the bucks. Today I was really wary. I think it was the determined look in his eyes. We played chicken, and I chickened out! But I got the blip!
