Spent

In between errands today I nipped down to Petworth Park to have another look at the fallow deer rut and it was all happening. There was much grunting and fighting amongst the men and the ladies seemed to be spending all their time trying to keep away from them. Exciting as the action is though I sometimes think that what's going on around is just as interesting in its own way, such as this poor chap who was clearly exhausted (and quite possibly injured) and had slipped away for a rest in the peace of a shady copse.

More here, if of interest.
